Elyria man bludgeons family with hammer in graphic photo sparks debate

A chilling scene on Woodbury Street shows Jeremy Shelton, shirtless and bloodied, escorted by police after a brutal hammer attack on his family. The Chronicle Telegram published a Home Edition photo to convey severity, prompting reader outrage and debates about shock value versus information. The piece also questions the diary evidence cited by police and notes a sharp sales spike for the special edition.

The Last Rabbi of Berlin and the Burialist of Hope

The story follows Martin Riesenburger, a cantor who became Berlin’s last functioning Jewish cemetery caretaker. Hidden Torahs, secret services, and funerals amid Gestapo surveillance define his wartime role, as he supported survivors and kept Berlin Jewry alive. He hid Torahs, conducted clandestine services, and performed burials until Soviet liberation.
