"Ever since I heard about the case I am confused and laden with thoughts, no one is trusted anymore" • Shira Iscove's mother in a special column following the murder of Diana Raz

Just shocking, very sad, unbearable and hard to hear such a thing.
It is hard to think and describe that after what has happened to us, such cases occur.
This weekend, after hearing about the case, it took me back.
All emotions floated back.
It is not clear how Dad is able to kill Mom, leaving four orphaned children.
It just illustrates to me how much nothing is taken for granted, and how miraculously Bira Shira was saved and survived, thanks to many Rosh Hashanah prayers and thanks to the neighbors who were her messengers.

There is no longer any trust left in anyone, a policeman who is supposed to guard and protect a murderer his wife.
There is no one to trust anymore.
One like that does not deserve to stay alive.
What did she do, that poor woman, who deserved to be murdered?
Nothing justifies such an act.
What about the pain of the four children, who will grow up without a mother and without a father?
Ever since I heard about Diana's case I have been completely confused and full of thoughts.
