A beautiful young woman came to America to escape war in Ukraine. She thought she would be safe here. Instead, 23-year-old Iryna Zarutska was brutally murdered by a savage criminal on a Charlotte train.
The killer, Decarlos Brown, had been arrested 14 times before. Yet somehow he was walking free on our streets. This is what happens when liberal judges and weak prosecutors put criminals before victims.
Security cameras caught the whole horrific attack. Brown sat behind Iryna, pulled out a knife, and stabbed her in the neck for no reason at all. She was just sitting there, looking at her phone like any normal person.
This innocent girl fled a war zone only to be slaughtered by a repeat offender who should have been locked up. Our justice system completely failed her and every law-abiding citizen who rides public transportation.
President Trump spoke out about this tragedy on Truth Social. He called the killer a “mentally deranged lunatic” and slammed the cashless bail policies that keep dangerous criminals on our streets.
Charlotte’s mayor is now admitting this was a “tragic failure by the courts and magistrates.” Too little, too late. Where was this concern before an innocent woman died?
We need judges who will keep violent criminals behind bars where they belong. We need prosecutors who care more about protecting victims than coddling repeat offenders.
This senseless murder could have been prevented if our justice system actually worked. Instead, another family is destroyed because liberal policies value criminals over innocent lives.
