A Jewish Extremist CRUClFlED (and murdered) an Arizona Christian Pastor in an elaborate plan to kiII 14 Christian leaders in 10 different states in what he called “Operation First Commandment.”

Adam Sheafe, an extrem­ist Zion­ist, con­fessed to the grue­some mur­der and cru­ci­fix­ion of 76-year-old Pas­tor Bill Schone­mann in April 2025 in Ari­zona, mark­ing the first of 14 pas­tors he alleged­ly planned to kill.

Dur­ing the inter­view, Sheafe chill­ing­ly admit­ted, “Did you kill Pas­tor Bill Schone­mann? Yes. Why? There’s 13 tribes of Israel,” reveal­ing his motive root­ed in a dis­tort­ed reli­gious ide­ol­o­gy.

Sheafe detailed his plan to “exe­cute and cru­ci­fy 13 priests” and “put one of the tribes of Israel on each of their right ears,” indi­cat­ing a rit­u­al­is­tic approach to his crimes.

He jus­ti­fied his actions by stat­ing, “It’s a com­mand­ment to rid Israel of evil,” refer­ring to the world as “Israel,” not the sov­er­eign nation, and showed no remorse, say­ing, “Not only do I have zero remorse, I plan on ful­fill­ing what I start­ed.”

Sheafe’s back­ground includes a his­to­ry of crim­i­nal activ­i­ty, as he men­tioned, “I’ve done this…you know..I have been in and out of prison so I run around with police prob­a­bly 100 times in my life.”

The mur­der of Pas­tor Schone­mann occurred short­ly after East­er ser­vices, with Sheafe con­fess­ing, “I drove from [Phoenix] to Bil­l’s house, like two in the morn­ing on a Sun­day night, and I exe­cut­ed him.”

This case has drawn atten­tion due to Sheafe’s explic­it reli­gious moti­va­tions and his will­ing­ness to con­fess, con­trast­ing with typ­i­cal crim­i­nal behav­ior where sus­pects often deny involve­ment.

The broad­er con­text includes ris­ing con­cerns about extrem­ist ide­olo­gies influ­enc­ing vio­lent acts, with this case high­light­ing the inter­sec­tion of reli­gious extrem­ism and crim­i­nal behav­ior in the Unit­ed States.
