The most basic responsibility of government is to keep the citizens safe, and the mental health professionals, along with the criminal justice system utterly failed in the recent murder of Iryna Zarutska.
Irmya was a refugee from Ukraine who came to the US to make a better life. She was senselessly murdered on a train by a man who was well known to both the criminal justice system and the mental health system. This all happened in Charlotte, NC recently. The murder was captured on train surveillance video. The video is both brutal and shocking. Inya stood no chance of surviving the attack.
I am outraged. This was a senseless crime. The killer should not have been on the street. We used to have gallows for people like this, but we are too soft and coddled to remember that we need harsh measures to protect vulnerable people who are just trying to go about their daily lives.
Google it yourself. I will not name the murderer. After his trial, he deserves to be forgotten like the trash that he is.
