DEVINE OP-ED: Disturbing Video of Ukrainian Refugee Iryna Zarutska’s Murder is Proof America Has a Serious Crime Problem

It is impossible to watch the surveillance footage showing Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska being stabbed to death on a crowded light rail carriage in Charlotte, NC, and not understand that America has a serious crime problem. Iryna, 23, had fled a war zone and should have been safe here.

She was street savvy enough to hide her beauty under a baseball cap and shapeless clothes, but it didn’t protect her from a career criminal with hatred in his heart.

A crime-ridden blue city failed her, and all the idiot Democrat mayor Vi Lyles can say is: “We will never arrest our way out” of the problem.

Yes. We. Can. Trump’s DC crackdown proves it.

That’s exactly what cops are for—arresting dangerous maniacs and keeping them off the streets.
