Iryna Zarutska's family is going to file a lawsuit regarding her vicious murder in a Charlotte train car.

We should be able to sue these negligent judges who let violent criminals back out our streets to victimize us again and again.

Decarlos Brown, Jr., the murderer of Iryna Zarutska, had at least 14 prior arrests, including for violent felonies.

HOLD THE JUDGES ACCOUNTABLE.

Good luck getting judges held accountable for the results of their decisions. It is never going to happen. Judges and bureaucrats are never held responsible.

🚨#BREAKING: The family of Iryna Zarutska is filing a lawsuit against the city of Charlotte NC, nearly 1 year after she was m*rdered on the Light Rail.

This comes as an auditor's report revealed that 60% of everyone riding the Light Rail in Charlotte ILLEGALLY rides the train by not paying for a ticket.

Yes, you read that right... SIXTY PERCENT of riders on the Light Rail do not pay for a ticket and illegally ride the train.

“We need physical barriers to prevent non-ticketed riders from boarding our light rail system. It's the only way, with a physical barrier, DeCarlos Brown Jr. would not have been on that train on August 22nd, 2025.”

“The family wants Iryna’s de*th to lead to lasting changes so that the people who live in Charlotte can feel safe....”

GOOD!!!

The taxpayers are the only ones who will be held accountable, not the judges or prosecutors. The rememdy is to allow them to be held personally liable. There are no personal consequences for them.

I live in CLT, and occasionally take the train. Payment is effectively voluntary. There are no turnstiles, no ticket checks, no ticket clerks, just automated kiosks where you can buy a ticket if you want. Anyone can walk onto the platform and get on the train when it stops there for free. Ride the train, and when it stops where you want to get off, just walk off and onto the street.

I agree 100%. In any other profession if you make an on the job mistake that results in someone's death you are libel both civilly and criminally. Including law enforcement.

For some reason judges and prosecutors are immune from all accountability or responsibly. As such they are free to be activists instead of impartial arbiters.

This needs to stop now.

Yes, the family's verified GoFundMe is still active and accepting donations to support them with expenses related to Iryna’s death:

gofundme.com/f/in-loving-me…

It has raised nearly $482k so far. No separate public fund specifically for the lawsuit appears to exist yet.

If I’m on that jury, I’m voting to award massive damages.

The guilty won’t pay a dime. The taxpayers will. But if they vote in the democrats this year, maybe they deserve it.

That’s ridiculous. Either declare the trains free or install some kind of sneak-proof gates. Why should only the honest people pay?
