The Northern Carolina legislator defends the surety system after the murder of Charlotte Train

A representative of the Northern Carolina State is under fire for having declared that there was “no correlation” between the murder of Iyna Zarutska, a 23 -year -old refugee of Ukraine, and the fact that her accused killer was released 14 times.

The representative of the State Marcia Morey, a long -standing democrat legislative and former judge, made the comments while defending the state surety system. Critics argue that the system allowed violent offenders to enter and out of the guard with little responsibility.

Décarlos Brown has been described by the authorities as a dangerous career criminal who was repeatedly in prison before stabbing Zarutska on a light train on the trail in Charlotte. Many believe that a broken deposit system allowed him to remain free despite his violent file.

Morey, one of the most vocal defenders in North Carolina for the reform of the surety, defended her comments and continued to condemn the efforts to link the case to the deposit policies.

“But do not correlate what happened in January and a magistrate who established a deposit according to the guidelines of what happened in August. There is no correlation,” she said during a legislative session.

Its argument has been countered by many legislators, who claim that the tragedy shows exactly why it is dangerous to allow offenders back in the street.

The chief of the Republican Senate, Phil Berger, argued that measures to reform guarantees designed to prevent more accused from not taking prison while waiting for the trial endangering public security.

“Iryna should always be alive. She should prosper and enjoy the time with her family and friends,” said Berger. “We cannot let the North Carolina be held hostage by woken and weak policies on crime and judicial leaders who prioritize the criminals for justice for the victims. We also take measures to revive the death penalty for those who commit the most odious crimes.”

However, supporters of the surety reform argue that the system unjustly punishes low -income accused who cannot afford the release.

Families of victims like Zarutska, on the other hand, believe that the consequences are fatal when recurrences have chance after chance.
