Moshe Hirsch Deutsh was 24 and a rabbinical student from Brooklyn when he was killed inside JC Kosher Supermarket in Jersey City on December 10, 2019. The store was attacked by two assailants, David N. Anderson, 47, and Francine Graham, 50, who arrived in a stolen U-Haul, exited armed with rifles, and began firing into the market. Deutsh was one of three people killed inside the store; co-owner Mindy Ferencz, 33, and employee Douglas Miguel Rodriguez, 49, also died. Rodriguez was shot while holding a back door open to let another customer escape.

Earlier that day the attackers shot and killed Jersey City Police Detective Joseph Seals at a nearby cemetery before moving to the grocery on Martin Luther King Drive. The standoff at the market became an hours-long shootout; an armored vehicle breached the storefront and the two assailants were killed at the scene. Investigators described anti-Semitic and anti-law enforcement motives, and found a manifesto-style note, a pipe bomb in the stolen van, and social media posts by Anderson. Authorities said the pair had been planning larger attacks and were suspects in an earlier killing of an Uber driver in Bayonne.

A pawn shop owner whose phone number was found on Anderson was later arrested and pleaded guilty to being a felon in possession of a weapon, but was not charged with supplying the weapons used in the attack. Does anyone have information about Moshe Deutsh’s activities that day or knew him personally?
