WEBVTT - Tragedy in Charlotte - September 9th, Hour 1 0:00:00.920 --> 0:00:02.600 All right, thank you Scott Shannon, Thanks to all of 0:00:02.680 --> 0:00:04.800 you for being with us. Right down our toll free 0:00:05.080 --> 0:00:06.680 telephone number if you want to be a part of 0:00:06.720 --> 0:00:08.760 the program, it is eight hundred and ninety four to 0:00:08.880 --> 0:00:11.720 one Sean if you want to join us. The FBI 0:00:11.800 --> 0:00:16.599 director Cash Bettel, Pam Bondi ag the DOJ hitting this 0:00:16.840 --> 0:00:21.840 alleged train killer with a federal crime in the commuters. 0:00:22.040 --> 0:00:26.520 Commuters on camera stabbing of this young woman. I've never 0:00:26.560 --> 0:00:30.320 seen anything like this in recent memory. We've seen horrible 0:00:30.360 --> 0:00:33.960 crimes over the years being committed. I mean, this woman 0:00:34.000 --> 0:00:37.479 gets on a train, he sits down, he's looking at 0:00:37.479 --> 0:00:40.479 her phone. The guy behind her just stands up and 0:00:40.560 --> 0:00:44.800 stabs her to death. And you know, I was reading 0:00:44.800 --> 0:00:48.360 today blue city trains are more dangerous than war zones, 0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:51.840 the White House said after this fatal stabbing, new video 0:00:51.920 --> 0:00:55.600 showing this guy drenched in blood. You know, after killing 0:00:55.680 --> 0:01:00.840 this Ukrainian refugee, this young woman, you have one GOP 0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:05.679 councilman rejecting National Guard intervention after the refugees train measure. 0:01:06.400 --> 0:01:06.880 I mean, it. 0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:11.399 Makes no sense to me where the Democrats are coming 0:01:11.440 --> 0:01:15.160 down on issues of law and order and safety and security. 0:01:15.920 --> 0:01:17.880 Now the suspect in this case. 0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:22.640 The FBI announced that de Carlos Dwan Brown, Junior, the 0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:26.080 suspect in the stabbing death of this young Ukrainian refugee 0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:29.959 woman and this North Carolina Charlotte, North Carolina train, has 0:01:30.000 --> 0:01:32.600 been federally charged with one count of committing an act 0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:36.760 causing death on a mass transportation system. 0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:37.480 Quote. 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:40.800 The brutal attack on this woman on the Charlotte light 0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:44.200 Rail was a disgraceful act that should never happen in America. 0:01:44.360 --> 0:01:47.920 FBI Director Cash Mattel. The FBI jumped to assist in 0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:52.600 this investigation immediately to ensure justice has served the perpetrator 0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:54.920 is never released from jail again. I want to thank 0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:58.440 the Attorney General Pam Bondi for her pursuit of today's 0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:02.040 federal charges, which are are the first step towards delivering 0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:05.880 justice for this young woman's family and her and her 0:02:05.960 --> 0:02:08.720 family and Americans who deserve to live in our great 0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:13.080 American cities free from being targeted by violent criminals. Bondi 0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:16.040 said the Department of Justice will seek the maximum penalty 0:02:17.040 --> 0:02:21.120 for Brown, saying this was the direct result of failed 0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:25.040 soft on crime policies that put criminals before innocent people. 0:02:25.560 --> 0:02:29.160 I have directed my attorneys to federally prosecute to Carlos 0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:32.880 Brown Junior, a repeat violent offender with a history of 0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:36.520 violent crime, for murder, and we will seek the maximum 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:39.760 penalty for this unforgivable act of violence. He will never 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:43.160 see the light of day again as a free man. 0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:46.600 I mean, this woman had taken the trade many times before, 0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:50.000 probably tired after a long day of work, wanted to 0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:53.840 just get home, make dinner, watch TV, maybe go out 0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:54.320 with friends. 0:02:54.360 --> 0:02:54.800 I don't know. 0:02:55.680 --> 0:03:00.400 Tragically never made it. There's a lot about this now. 0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:07.600 The judge who released this trained killer has a history 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:10.360 of being soft on crime. Now we see this in 0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:14.000 certain jurisdictions. A police officer can be sued if they 0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:16.919 make a mistake on the job, especially if it results 0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:20.800 in serious injury to an innocent civilian. Those lawsuits, by 0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:24.200 the way, can result in substantial civil judgments that could 0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:29.160 bankrupt an officer family. In the case of like New 0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:32.360 York City, they spend tens and hundreds of millions of 0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:35.400 dollars annually last time I checked. Why aren't some of 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:37.840 these soft on crime judges subject to the same kind 0:03:37.840 --> 0:03:42.040 of accountability, because if they were, I think that maybe 0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:46.880 the family of this young Ukrainian murder victim you know, 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:50.400 would have a hell of a lawsuit against the magistrate judge. 0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:54.480 Washington Examiner points out this judge is under fire for 0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:59.680 allowing this apparently schizophrenic, according to their report, repeat offender 0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:03.760 walking free without bonds seven months before this stabbing took 0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:07.400 place on this train, on this light rail. In this 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:13.640 unprovoked attack, a magistrate who released to Carlos Brown Junior 0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:18.320 on January twenty first quote on a written promise to appear. 0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:22.920 That's it, after he was arrested on charges of misusing 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:25.280 the nine to one to one system during a police 0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:29.320 welfare check, and Brown, a homeless guy diagnosed with schizophrenia, 0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:34.680 told police officers he believed man made material was implanted 0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:37.640 into his body, controlling his movements. He had been arrested 0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:42.240 many times previously. When officers advised him it was a 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:45.440 medical matter and left, Brown became agitated, called nine to 0:04:45.440 --> 0:04:48.800 one one again, prompting officers to arrest him in charge 0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:52.160 him with a Class one misdemeanor. Now, despite this guy's 0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:57.360 violent criminal history, mental illness, a lack of fixed address, 0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:01.480 they let this guy go. Judge let him go. No 0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:06.520 bond required. Police say he boarded this train without paying 0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:10.320 the fare. A shocker stabbed his twenty three year old 0:05:10.360 --> 0:05:13.039 young woman in the neck as she sat alone. He 0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:15.200 died right there on the scene. Her family said she 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:18.480 had fled war torn Ukraine in search of a better, 0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:22.360 safer life in the US. You know, even Brown's mother 0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:26.200 said the court system failed the community by releasing her son. 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:29.120 Even the mother said, telling reporters that he had been 0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:34.200 under psychiatric monitoring after a schizophrenia diagnosis in twenty fourteen. 0:05:34.720 --> 0:05:39.120 His criminal record includes an armed robbery conviction, an assault 0:05:39.120 --> 0:05:43.200 on his sister, multiple other arrests. And then the question 0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:47.480 now comes down to, you know, the idiocy of not 0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:53.880 just judges, but this whole you know, defund dismantle no 0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:59.039 bail law. You know, reimagine the police insanity that the 0:05:59.120 --> 0:06:02.480 Left is embraced. And in spite of all the violent 0:06:02.520 --> 0:06:05.839 crime that takes place in Chicago, in every major city 0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:10.800 and in small towns, it just continues. Republican members of 0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:14.320 North Carolina's congressional delegation are calling for the removal of 0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:18.600 this judge. All ten House GOP members from the tar 0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:21.640 Heel state signed a letter urging a formal proceedings to 0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:26.719 remove the magistrate, Judge Teresa Stokes. They cited her decision 0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:29.720 to release the Carlos Brown based solely on his written 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.920 promise to appear to a future court date. What part 0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:36.120 of his record made her think that this was a 0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:40.360 good idea? What part of this guy's record gave for 0:06:40.480 --> 0:06:44.320 any faith, hope and confidence that he wouldn't be a 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:48.680 threat to the community. By releasing a repeat violent offender 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:52.600 on nothing more than a written promise to appear, the 0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:56.279 magistrate displayed a wilful failure to perform the duties of 0:06:56.320 --> 0:07:02.520 her office and engaged in conduct prejudicial to the administration 0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:08.520 of justice. Congressman Tim Moore, her decision undermined public confidence 0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:13.600 in the judicial system, exposed the entire community the wholly 0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:17.840 preventable harm, and it goes. They argued that the release 0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:22.640 was made despite Brown's extensive criminal history fourteen prior arrest 0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:26.040 for serious offenses and by the way, including possession of 0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:30.840 a firearm by a felon, robbery with a dangerous weapon, 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:35.080 physical assault of his own sister, you know, And then 0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:39.360 you have this dopey mayor in Charlotte coming under fire. 0:07:39.480 --> 0:07:44.440 Rightly so for woke comments calling for compassion not for 0:07:44.560 --> 0:07:47.920 the family of the victim and the victim, no, but 0:07:47.960 --> 0:07:53.239 for the deranged vagrant accused and on video viciously murdering 0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:54.000 this young woman. 0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:56.480 This is a tragic situation. 0:07:56.600 --> 0:07:59.800 It sheds light on problems with society safety nets related 0:07:59.800 --> 0:08:02.080 to mental health care in the systems that should be 0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:06.600 in place. We had this guy in the system. The 0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:09.280 guy was in place. He should have been in jail. 0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:13.640 He should not have been released anyway. The mayor goes 0:08:13.680 --> 0:08:17.920 on that the perpetrator, de Carlos Brown Junior, appears to 0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:21.080 have suffered a crisis. Oh, he's having a crisis. He's 0:08:21.120 --> 0:08:22.960 having a bad day. Let me, let me, let me 0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:26.400 knife this girl to death on a train. Then the 0:08:26.440 --> 0:08:31.840 mayor goes on demanded some compassion diligence commitments as we 0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:35.120 would have for cancer or heart disease. How out of 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:38.240 touch are you here? Who do you have more sympathy for? 0:08:38.320 --> 0:08:38.520 Here? 0:08:39.679 --> 0:08:44.000 He claimed that the Charlotte area transit system where this 0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:46.240 was caught on video took place, by and large, a 0:08:46.280 --> 0:08:51.880 safe transit system, not that safe, despite the unprovoked stabbing. Again, 0:08:51.920 --> 0:08:53.760 the young lady was just coming home from work. The 0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:57.679 mayor added that mental health like this schizophrenia that Brown 0:08:57.840 --> 0:09:01.800 was diagnosed with, needs to be treated with the same compassion, diligence, 0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:06.000 and commitment as cancer and heart disease. And those who 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:10.920 are unhoused and more frequently the victim of crimes and 0:09:11.000 --> 0:09:14.120 not the perpetrators, although we should have more compassion now. 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:17.520 Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy was on with me last night. 0:09:18.320 --> 0:09:21.560 If mayors can't keep their trains and buses safe, they 0:09:21.640 --> 0:09:23.840 don't deserve taxpayer money. 0:09:24.200 --> 0:09:24.720 He's right. 0:09:25.520 --> 0:09:28.800 The Department of Transportation is going to be investigating Charlotte 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:31.920 over their failure to protect this young woman. We'll also 0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:34.840 be looking for other crime ridden cities across the country. 0:09:35.160 --> 0:09:38.400 He suggested. The federal transportation funding is at risk for 0:09:38.520 --> 0:09:42.280 cities that do not curb violence on public transit. Our 0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:44.880 position is, if you don't clean up your act, we're 0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:47.559 not going to invest in you. If you don't, we're 0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:49.559 going to pull your money and we're going to put 0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:52.520 it somewhere else. Good for him, he was great last 0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:56.080 night on this very issue. But it's all part of 0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:59.760 a mentality, It's all part of a mindset of the 0:09:59.840 --> 0:10:03.960 life left. This goes much deeper, you know, you know, 0:10:04.040 --> 0:10:07.920 we can't arrest. The mayor goes on to say, in 0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:12.880 further comments that are being made here, you know that 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:16.200 we will never arrest our way out of issues such 0:10:16.240 --> 0:10:20.640 as homelessness and mental health. Can we arrest our way 0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:23.000 out of lunatics killing random victims? 0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:24.160 Can we? 0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:27.640 If they're in the system and arrested fourteen times, yeah, 0:10:27.720 --> 0:10:31.440 you have a pretty good indication that that person is 0:10:31.480 --> 0:10:35.240 going to do something again. That long arrest record describes 0:10:35.320 --> 0:10:40.280 a violent, seriously mentally ill man who had no business 0:10:40.280 --> 0:10:41.400 being on the streets. 0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:46.200 At some point. Everybody you know up and down this. 0:10:46.200 --> 0:10:50.800 Chain has blood on their hands, just like I argue Biden, 0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:56.720 Harris mayorcis all the enablers, all the liars that told 0:10:56.760 --> 0:10:59.240 us the border is closed and secure. How many times 0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:02.040 have I said they have blood on their hands. All 0:11:02.080 --> 0:11:06.839 the people murdered by Harris Biden mayorcis unvetted, the illegal immigrants, 0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:10.400 all the people raped, all the other victims of violent crime, 0:11:10.920 --> 0:11:14.240 all the overdose people because of drug dealers and cartel 0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:17.880 members and gang members selling those drugs. And then for 0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:20.760 four years they lie and say the borders closed, the 0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:25.360 border secure, the boarders closed the border secure. This guy 0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:29.559 was well known to local social service people and community 0:11:29.600 --> 0:11:33.240 policing authorities. He was detained this year for calling nine 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:36.600 one ones just this year. You know, leftist officials in 0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:39.880 these these blue cities talk about real safety, of making 0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:43.320 people feel safe. Oh what now you've got to, you know, 0:11:43.400 --> 0:11:47.000 triple lock your doors, you know. And this is the 0:11:47.040 --> 0:11:51.600 even sicker part. Remember Luigi Mangioni, the guy accused the 0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:55.600 guy of killing the United Healthcare CEO. Remember that guy, 0:11:56.480 --> 0:12:00.520 He became, you know, a hero of the left. Believe 0:12:00.559 --> 0:12:04.000 it or not. They set up a go fund me account. 0:12:04.720 --> 0:12:07.440 But to Carlos Brown Junior, the guy that killed this 0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:10.960 young innocent woman, he didn't see it coming. 0:12:11.880 --> 0:12:14.000 He sat in front of the guy. She's on her 0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:15.680 phone and. 0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:17.280 We could show the video as far as we could 0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:23.160 show it without literally, you know, showing a massacre. He's 0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:27.960 on her phone, totally unaware that this guy's has his 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:30.280 knife out and about to jam it right and in 0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:33.520 her neck and then stab her again and again and again. 0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:38.479 Go fund Me said they thankfully removed multiple fundraising campaigns 0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:43.840 created on behalf of the killer, the ex con, and 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:46.640 they say go fund me terms of service prohibit fundraisers 0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:49.000 for legal defense for anyone charged with a violent crime 0:12:49.760 --> 0:12:52.000 and they didn't know about it. But and by the 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:54.880 way the social media backlash, they did remove it as 0:12:54.880 --> 0:12:56.600 soon as they were made aware of it. I'm not 0:12:57.400 --> 0:12:59.720 I'm not blaming them because people can put this up 0:12:59.760 --> 0:13:02.360 without at having, you know, approval. Maybe they should change 0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:05.600 the system of approval. But who are these people that 0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:08.520 would donate to this? Who are these people that make 0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:11.880 excuses for this? You know you're wearing you know, I'm 0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:15.400 watching the comments, you know, made by people that are donating. 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:18.000 You know, who are the people that praise the likes 0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:23.280 of Luigi Mangioni. What has happened to the left? You know, 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:26.880 we're all people of religion, but there are evil people. 0:13:26.960 --> 0:13:30.040 President Trump said, we have to confront that. I just 0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:32.000 give my love and hope to the family of the 0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:35.560 young woman who was stabbed this morning or last night 0:13:35.600 --> 0:13:37.080 in Charlotte by this madman. 0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:40.280 Well, you can't bring her back. 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:45.599 Who's going to be held accountable because the system failed spectacularly. 0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:50.280 I mean, it's a twenty three year old woman. He 0:13:50.360 --> 0:13:53.520 had her entire life ahead of her. And this is 0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:56.360 happening in big towns and small city all over the country, 0:13:57.320 --> 0:14:00.280 and anytime President Trump offers help, like he was able 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:06.160 to reduce the violent crime rate all over Washington, d C. Dramatically, 0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:09.360 and all you hear from JB. Pritzker and Brandon John Oh, 0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:12.160 we don't want that, complaints from the part time governor 0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:16.000 of California, complaints from New York politicians, the places that 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:20.280 are least safe and lea secure. I hope all of 0:14:20.280 --> 0:14:25.480 you will pay attention, and you know, elect people that 0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:26.760 believe in law and order. 0:14:26.560 --> 0:14:29.239 And safety and security. Please we'll continue. 0:14:29.400 --> 0:14:34.760 We are awaiting this update out of Charlotte in North Carolina. 0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:37.520 When that happens, we'll bring that to you. We'll also 0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:41.160 play this exchange as I said with Tom Homan, I mean, 0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:44.600 just the contempt. Did you see this video? Linda will 0:14:44.600 --> 0:14:48.280 play it, But the contempt that Mika Brazinski had is 0:14:48.360 --> 0:14:53.000 Tom Homan just absolutely. I mean it was a verbal, 0:14:53.600 --> 0:14:57.760 you know, beat down in just terms of facts and understanding, 0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:01.040 and she is you're disappearing people. No, we're not, and 0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:03.800 then he went on to describe the people that he's 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:05.000 been arresting. 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:07.680 That are threats to the community. 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:12.440 I don't understand the liberal mind that wants open borders, 0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:18.240 unvetted illegal immigrants, including murderers, rapists, known terrorists, gang members, 0:15:18.320 --> 0:15:21.840 cartel members, et cetera. And why they would resist the 0:15:21.920 --> 0:15:24.840 policing efforts to keep their citizens safe and secure. I'll 0:15:24.880 --> 0:15:25.800 never understand it. 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:35.880 Pallig. 0:15:36.000 --> 0:15:39.400 Baldwin's favorite radio talk show host is on the air 0:15:39.600 --> 0:15:47.040 right now, right, mister Baldwin's Sean Hannity.

This just breaking from Newsweek. That would 0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:39.120 be a yes or no. Let me know, please get 0:17:39.119 --> 0:17:42.439 that a new According to Newsweek, this is just breaking. 0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:46.240 A new video depicting the you know, the stabbing of 0:17:46.320 --> 0:17:49.760 this young Ukrainian woman is circulated on social media. Show 0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:53.280 in the aftermath. Newsweek reporting the video shows the man 0:17:53.400 --> 0:17:58.040 moving through the train carriage after stabbing this young woman, 0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:06.000 and in the continued footage, the suspect walk down the 0:18:06.040 --> 0:18:08.800 carriage of the train with blood ripping from his knife. 0:18:08.840 --> 0:18:11.760 Passengers didn't even react to him. Most people on trains, 0:18:11.800 --> 0:18:14.880 they look down. Most people on trains are not very 0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:17.560 self aware. I know in New York, it's kind of 0:18:17.560 --> 0:18:21.399 like an unwritten rule. You just don't look at other people. 0:18:21.560 --> 0:18:23.720 I don't like that rule. That's not how I used 0:18:23.760 --> 0:18:27.199 to roll. All right, let's go to this press conference 0:18:27.240 --> 0:18:29.200 and I'll get back to this. Anyway, the guy continued, 0:18:29.200 --> 0:18:32.359 and he said, I got that white girl. According to Newsweek, 0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:35.679 he seemed to be muttering. Some of his other statements 0:18:35.720 --> 0:18:38.600 are harder to verify. But that's what Newsweek is reporting. 0:18:39.200 --> 0:18:41.720 And by the way, Washington Post is reporting Red states 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:44.480 are cracking down on crime in their own blue cities 0:18:44.520 --> 0:18:47.960 within these red states. And we're talking about Houston, Texas, 0:18:48.240 --> 0:18:51.880 New Orleans, Louisiana, Saint Louis, Missouri, and others. Anyway, let's 0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:52.520 go to this presser. 0:18:53.359 --> 0:18:54.160 They were a little late. 0:18:54.440 --> 0:18:57.000 I'm here with Jim Barnacle, who's the specialized in charge 0:18:57.040 --> 0:19:00.200 of FBI Charlotte which covers all in North Carolina. He 0:19:00.240 --> 0:19:01.800 and I just got off the phone with the family 0:19:01.960 --> 0:19:05.879 of Arena Zarutzska. Spoke with her mother, spoke with her uncle, 0:19:07.560 --> 0:19:10.639 had a very touching call with them. Our hearts go 0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:19.359 out to Arena's family. They are suffering, like any of 0:19:19.440 --> 0:19:21.960 us would be. It was a very touching call. Our 0:19:22.000 --> 0:19:22.719 hearts go out to them. 0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:25.320 She is a refugee. She literally came. 0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:27.800 To the United States from a bomb shelter in Ukraine 0:19:27.920 --> 0:19:31.280 to escape the war. And she was going about her day. 0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:35.240 She was coming home from work on a light rail train, 0:19:35.560 --> 0:19:38.119 like all of us do all the time, and she 0:19:38.200 --> 0:19:42.080 was brutally murdered. As a native of Charlotte, I'm so 0:19:42.119 --> 0:19:44.600 sad to say that our city has gotten to this place. 0:19:45.320 --> 0:19:48.800 I was born here, I grew up here. I remember 0:19:49.000 --> 0:19:53.320 when the light rail was built. I remember the development 0:19:53.320 --> 0:19:56.320 is spurred. I remember the excitement. And to think now 0:19:56.440 --> 0:20:00.520 that you can't even feel comfortable riding that train hits 0:20:00.560 --> 0:20:04.920 me deep. The light rail brought this city access to jobs, 0:20:05.080 --> 0:20:06.080 access to education. 0:20:06.480 --> 0:20:08.040 People could take the train to college. 0:20:08.359 --> 0:20:12.160 It really put Charlotte on the map, and this incident 0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:17.320 has really really injured that now. Carlos Brown Junior, who 0:20:17.359 --> 0:20:21.959 we allege stabbed Erna Sarutska, is in state custody on 0:20:22.119 --> 0:20:25.359 first degree murder charges. But I'm here today to announce 0:20:25.400 --> 0:20:28.640 that we're going to supplement those state charges with federal charges. 0:20:29.040 --> 0:20:31.639 These federal charges will go alongside the murder case and 0:20:31.680 --> 0:20:35.119 state court, and we hope that they will insure justice 0:20:35.119 --> 0:20:37.000 for Erna, for her family, and for the. 0:20:36.960 --> 0:20:38.120 Whole Charlotte community. 0:20:38.920 --> 0:20:41.160 The charge we are bringing is in Title eighteen, which 0:20:41.200 --> 0:20:44.200 is the Criminal Code, at section nineteen ninety two A seven, 0:20:44.720 --> 0:20:47.760 which is the law that Congress passed really for this situation. 0:20:48.040 --> 0:20:50.720 It is an act of violence on a mass transportation system. 0:20:51.119 --> 0:20:53.199 It is a law that is there because acts like 0:20:53.320 --> 0:20:57.119 this affect the American way. It affects our daily life. 0:20:57.520 --> 0:21:01.160 It is random acts on a train that are the 0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:03.480 thoroughbred and how we get through our cities to work 0:21:03.480 --> 0:21:05.760 to or places of education, to our families. 0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:07.439 It is our way of American life. 0:21:07.800 --> 0:21:10.240 Crime makes people stop taking that light rail, that give 0:21:10.320 --> 0:21:12.800 up those opportunities, and we're here to be sure that 0:21:12.840 --> 0:21:15.800 we can save our city and bring those opportunities back. 0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:19.399 The maximum penalty for this federal crime is life in 0:21:19.440 --> 0:21:20.439 prison without parole. 0:21:20.560 --> 0:21:21.440 Or the death penalty. 0:21:21.960 --> 0:21:25.359 Of course, each individual case receives its own sentencing hearing 0:21:25.400 --> 0:21:27.680 by a federal judge that will decide the sentence based 0:21:27.760 --> 0:21:31.040 on the individual factors. In this case, of course, at 0:21:31.040 --> 0:21:33.520 this point, we're only making allegations. We do have a charge. 0:21:33.520 --> 0:21:35.520 We filed a criminal complaint. It has been signed by 0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:38.119 a federal judge. The charges have been brought, but they 0:21:38.119 --> 0:21:41.040 are just charges. Getting there has been a process. I 0:21:41.040 --> 0:21:44.040 want to thank the FBI, which has an incredible team 0:21:44.200 --> 0:21:46.879 that has investigated this case. They've been sure we had 0:21:46.880 --> 0:21:48.960 a basis for federal charges. I want to thank the 0:21:49.040 --> 0:21:52.879 Charlotte Mackaburg Police Department that started this investigation, apprehended the 0:21:52.880 --> 0:21:56.600 defendant immediately after the incident happened at the light rail station. 0:21:57.119 --> 0:21:58.840 And I want to thank the District Attorney's office and 0:21:58.880 --> 0:22:02.840 Spencer Meriweather who first degree murder charges right away when 0:22:02.840 --> 0:22:05.920 this happened. I think everyone knows the facts of this case, 0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:10.000 but I will briefly recitate what is in our criminal complaint, 0:22:11.119 --> 0:22:12.639 and that is that at nine to fifty five on 0:22:12.680 --> 0:22:16.760 August twenty second, Charlotte Meckenburgh Police Department corresponding to jump. 0:22:16.600 --> 0:22:20.919 In here because We have absolutely gone over all the 0:22:20.960 --> 0:22:21.639 details of this. 0:22:21.760 --> 0:22:23.080 It's just a tragedy. 0:22:23.119 --> 0:22:26.160 Twenty three year old irena, a young a young woman 0:22:26.520 --> 0:22:28.520 in the prime of her life, gets on a train 0:22:28.560 --> 0:22:32.840 and she's looking at her phone, the background, the criminal record, 0:22:33.119 --> 0:22:36.280 the mental health issues, and nobody lifted a finger. And 0:22:36.280 --> 0:22:38.600 then you have a dopey mayor that seems to have 0:22:38.640 --> 0:22:42.880 more sympathy for the victim than for the I'm sorry 0:22:42.960 --> 0:22:45.760 for the perpetrator than the victim. It really, it really 0:22:45.840 --> 0:22:52.360 should make everybody angry. The Washington Post reporting state legislatures 0:22:52.359 --> 0:22:56.480 have now taken a more direct hand to her crimes 0:22:57.240 --> 0:23:02.640 in blue cities within red states. I'm mentioned Jackson, Mississippi, Houston, Texas, 0:23:02.680 --> 0:23:07.520 New Orleans, Louisiana, Saint Louis, Missouri, and others. Mississippi, for example, 0:23:08.119 --> 0:23:11.000 invested heavily in new court operations to move quickly to 0:23:11.080 --> 0:23:13.760 prosecute and jail suspects. Now this guy is going to 0:23:13.800 --> 0:23:16.440 face a minimum of life in prison without any chance 0:23:16.440 --> 0:23:20.880 of parole, may face the death penalty, depending I guess 0:23:20.880 --> 0:23:23.119 on the judge that and the evidence has presented. The 0:23:23.160 --> 0:23:26.840 evidence seems overwhelming and incontrovertible. Considering the whole thing is 0:23:26.880 --> 0:23:31.040 on videotape and the brutality and the pure evil in 0:23:31.080 --> 0:23:35.040 this crime. But then again, I guess you know, then 0:23:35.080 --> 0:23:38.760 you're going to have you know, idiotic mayors, and you know, 0:23:38.840 --> 0:23:41.639 you have soft on crime judges like the one that 0:23:41.720 --> 0:23:45.520
