Before it was pushed from the headlines by the horrifying assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, the major national crime story was the murder of Iryna Zarutska, a Ukrainian woman stabbed to death on public transportation in Charlotte, North Carolina in late August whose killing was captured on graphic surveillance video. The suspect in the killing had an extensive criminal record, and his mother had previously pleaded to have her son committed to a mental institution. But at the time of the crime, the alleged killer was out on a written promise to appear for a charge of misusing the 9-1-1 system. The alleged killer’s extensive criminal record and the shocking horror of his crime has reignited a debate over criminal justice policy in America; today’s guest, the Daily Wire’s Megan Basham, discovered that in Charlotte itself, Big Philanthropy has pushed the policies that may have left the man free to kill Zarutska.
