Liberal media and politicians have been accused of staying silent on the savage murder of a young Ukrainian refugee on a North Carolina train — after a career criminal with no less than 14 arrests was charged with her murder.
Iryna Zarutska, 23, was stabbed to death on a light rail train in Charlotte, with horrifying surveillance footage showing the moment the unsuspecting young woman was brutally attacked.
Decarlos Brown Jr., 35, is allegedly shown pulling out a pocket knife and getting out of his seat behind Zarutska before the video cuts just as he prepares to plunge the blade into her, footage shared by police shows.
Zarutska is totally unaware of the killer behind her, fiddling with her phone as Brown allegedly unfolds the knife and prepares to attack.
After the killing, the attacker can be seen wandering through the Lynx Blue Line train — spattering blood across the floor as he carries the weapon.
Bystanders barely seem to notice that a young woman has just been hacked to death right behind them.
The suspect takes off his bloody hoodie and then calmly waits for the train to pull into the station before exiting the train.
But in the wake of the monstrous killing, which took place on Aug. 22, mainstream outlets and politicians have largely stayed silent.
Charlotte’s Dem mayor even thanked publications that chose to keep the video from the public.
“The video of the heartbreaking attack that took Iryna Zarutska’s life is now public. I want to thank our media partners and community members who have chosen not to repost or share the footage out of respect for Iryna’s family,” wrote Mayor Vi Lyles in a post on X on Saturday.
But her statement drew outrage from many, including Republican Congressmen in the Tarheel State.
“The Mayor’s refusal to condemn senseless, horrific, and preventable violence is as telling as it is despicable. Violent criminals, regardless of who they are or what they look like, need to be in jail,” wrote Rep. Brad Knott (R-NC) in response to Lyles’ post.
Lyles’ office did not respond immediately to requests for comment.
