In North Carolina, 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska was stabbed to death on a train. Police arrested 34-year-old Decarlos Brown, who attacked the woman, and charged him with murder.
The incident was caught on video and widely circulated on social media. This sparked public outrage. The city’s mayor called it a failure of the judicial system and promised to increase security on public transport.
Zarutska’s family said she fled the war in 2022 and quickly adapted to her new life in the US. She was interested in art, loved animals, and was happy living with her family.
The case also led to political debate. Some criticized that Brown, previously convicted of serious crimes, was still released. The state’s leader called for stronger measures against crime.
