UPDATE 1/6/11: Dunwoody man’s widow knew alleged killer
A Buckhead man has been arrested in connection with the November killing of Russell “Rusty” Sneiderman of Dunwoody.
Hemy Zvi Neuman, 48, was arrested by Dunwoody Police on Jan. 4 and charged with murder, Dunwoody police said. He is being held at DeKalb County Jail without bond, said Dunwoody Police spokesman Sgt. Mike Carlson.
Sneiderman on Nov. 18 was shot several times in the parking lot of Dunwoody Prep, a daycare center at 5493 Chamblee Dunwoody Road. He had just dropped off his son at the facility and was returning to his car when he was shot.
No other information was given by police at a press conference Tuesday night. Carlson said the investigation is ongoing.
At the time of the shooting, police said the suspect drove off in a silver minivan with no license plate. Police said the suspect was wearing a beard, but it could have been a fake.
Sneiderman’s family had put up a $10,000 reward to go with a $2,000 CrimeStoppers reward for information leading to the arrest of a suspect
Sneiderman earned an MBA from Harvard Business and had three companies listed with the Georgia Secretary of State’s office. Crimson Transaction Specialists was started in 2008 and its registration was renewed in March 2010. According to its Web site, Crimson Transaction “specializes in mergers and acquisitions of companies with $30 million to $300 million in annual revenue.” The company has an office at 4780 Ashford Dunwoody Road in Dunwoody and one in Chicago. A second company, Sneiderman Consulting, was formed in May 2010.
In September, he joined two others in starting Star Voicemail. According to its profile on the Linked-in website, this is a company “offers custom voice mail greetings featuring notable sports, movie, music and TV personalities.”
Previous to starting his own businesses, Sneiderman worked for the Innova Group, then as a vice president at JP Morgan Private Client Services, according to his profile on the Linked-in website. Sneiderman worked at Discovery Point Child Development Centers at its chief operating officer from January 2009 to about April 2010, according to a company spokesman.
He also volunteered with several charitable organizations.
