A beautiful young Ukrainian refugee fled war only to be butchered by a career criminal on an American train. Iryna Zarutska, just 23 years old, was riding home from her job at a pizza shop when Decarlos Brown Jr. stabbed her to death. She came to America seeking safety and the American dream.
Brown was a walking crime wave who should have been locked up years ago. He had been arrested over and over for robbery, breaking and entering, and assault. This dangerous predator was free to roam our streets because of failed liberal policies.
The surveillance video tells the whole sick story. Zarutska sat quietly wearing headphones, minding her own business like any hardworking American. Brown sat behind her and without warning pulled out a knife and stabbed her three times from behind.
This was not random violence. Greg Kelly got it exactly right when he said she was targeted because of the color of her skin. A white Ukrainian refugee was hunted down by a Black career criminal who knew the system would protect him.
Brown was even fare-jumping when he committed this evil act. He could not even pay for his train ride but somehow liberals think we should feel sorry for criminals like him. Meanwhile, innocent people like Iryna pay the ultimate price.
The blood is on the hands of every soft-on-crime politician and activist judge. They created this monster by refusing to lock up repeat offenders. Their so-called compassion enables killers to stalk our neighborhoods and public transportation.
Iryna dreamed of becoming a veterinary assistant and helping animals. She walked her neighbors’ dogs with a bright smile and brought joy to everyone around her. Now she is dead because Democrats care more about criminals than victims.
This is what happens when we prioritize the rights of thugs over the safety of decent people. How many more innocent Americans must die before we get tough on crime again. Iryna Zarutska deserved so much better than what our broken system gave her.
