"North Carolina governor signs 'Iryna's Law' after Ukrainian refugee's brutal train murder
Democrat Gov. Josh Stein acted after repeat felon Decarlos Dejuan Brown Jr. charged in killing of Iryna Zarutska
North Carolina Gov. Josh Stein on Friday signed "Iryna's Law," which increases checks on criminals getting out on bail and prohibits cashless bail for some violent crimes and most repeat offenders following the stabbing death of a Ukrainian refugee on a Charlotte light-rail train in August.
Stein, a Democrat, has said he doesn’t like every part of the bill that was passed by the Republican-controlled state Legislature, which also looks to restart executions in North Carolina, but he signed it because it "alerts the judiciary to take a special look at people who may pose unusual risks of violence before determining their bail. That’s a good thing."
Iryna Zarutska, 23, was killed on Aug. 22, and Decarlos Dejuan Brown Jr., who had been arrested more than a dozen times, including an armed robbery charge for which he served five years in prison before the fatal train stabbing, has been charged with first-degree murder."

Stein didn't want to commit political seppuku by vetoing the bill. Imagine crying as you sign a bill protecting the public from violent criminals. That's Democrats for you.
