Many of the doctors and nurses who treated the shooter who attacked the synagogue in Pittsburgh last weekend happen to be Jewish, including the president of the hospital, Dr. Jeff Cohen. Coincidentally, Cohen also happens to be a member of the synagogue that was attacked.
An interview with Dr. Cohen talking about treating the suspect, which you can see below, has gone viral because of his incredible level of compassion. “My job isn’t to judge him. My job is to take care of him,” Dr Cohen said. Cohen also noted that many of the other doctors and nurses who treated the suspect were also Jewish.
On Saturday, the suspect opened fire, killing 11 people at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh.
“My job isn’t to judge him… my job is to care for him.”
