Trump Slams Cashless Bail After Charlotte Attack
Clear Facts
- President Donald Trump responded to the fatal stabbing of 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska in Charlotte, North Carolina.
- The suspect, Decarlos Brown, has a long criminal history and was repeatedly released on cashless bail before the attack.
- Surveillance video showed the attacker ambushing Zarutska on the Lynx Blue Line light rail just after 9:45 p.m. on August 22, 2025.
President Trump condemned the attack, describing the crime as horrific. He specifically questioned why someone with such a criminal background was free to walk the streets thanks to cashless bail policies.
“I have seen the horrific video of a beautiful, young Ukrainian refugee, who came to America to escape the vicious War in Ukraine, and was innocently riding the Metro in Charlotte, North Carolina, where she was brutally ambushed by a mentally deranged lunatic. The perpetrator was a well known career criminal, who had been previously arrested and released on CASHLESS BAIL in January, a total of 14 TIMES,” Trump said in the statement. “What the hell was he doing riding the train, and walking the streets? Criminals like this need to be LOCKED UP.”
The video recorded Brown sitting behind Zarutska before attacking her. Authorities pronounced her dead at the scene following three stab wounds, one reportedly to the neck.
Trump referenced the attack during remarks at the Museum of the Bible, calling for stronger action against violent criminals.
“We’re all people of religion, but there are evil people,” Trump said. “And we have to confront that. I just give my love and hope to the family of the young woman who was stabbed this morning or last night in Charlotte by a madman.”
Police quickly apprehended Brown, charging him with first-degree murder. His record includes felony convictions, a multi-year prison term, parole violations, and several arrests in 2024 and 2025.
Trump stressed the dangers of cashless bail, arguing that it allows dangerous criminals back on the streets. “This cashless bail started a wave in our country where a killer kills somebody and is out on the street by the afternoon and, in many cases, going out and killing again, cashless bail,” Trump stated.
He warned that failure to address such policies could further erode safety in American communities.
“So they’re evil people,” Trump said. “We have to be able to handle that. If we don’t handle that, we don’t have a country.”

When these violent bastards are caught they should be killed on the spot. It would save a hell of a lot of money over bullshit trials and feeding the bastard the rest of his life.

There need to be stronger laws, hear that congress. Then the judicial system needs to be enforced. But if that fails, I agree they ought to be killed on the spot. None of this taking the cops gun and then the cop charged with murder.

This “cashless bail” thing must be a dem/lib baby.No one in their right mind would consider this as a workable solution to crime.
This loonacy ended in murder……how will the MSM and the leftists spin this now??

Well folks…Why don’t we all look back of how this all came about! What group of people want the Police defunded? Supported BLM/illegals and rioters while they looted and burned cities? Allowed millions of illegal immigrants to cross the border illegally and facilitated that by disregarding our laws? And who, by the way, want to destroy laws and our Constitution by whatever means necessary to remain in power? Why its the same people who support all of this garbage and continually vote the people responsibly right back into office! Want to know how to get back on the railroad tracks? Sentence people to the letter of the law; bring back the death penalty; no bail for crimes of violence until perpetrators have stood before a Judge; no bail at all for anyone accused of the death of another until the matter is adjudicated by a Court; in short take back our streets, our laws and our rights to the pursuit of happiness! We can do a lot to accomplish that by simply “draining the swamp”!!!!!!!
