CHARLOTTE, NOTH CAROLINA - An online fundraiser designed to support a career criminal who brutally murdered a Ukrainian girl onboard a train in North Carolina has sparked fury online.
Decarlos Brown Jr., 35, is facing first-degree murder charges for stabbing Iryna Zarutska, 23, onboard a South End light rail train in Charlotte on August 22.
Shocking surveillance footage from the scene showed him watching Zarutska for some time after she sat in the seat in front of him, eventually taking out what appeared to be a blade from his pocket.
He then stood up and loomed over the 23-year-old, swinging the knife at her as she sat with her phone.
Brown was then seen leaving a trail of blood throughout the train as other passengers appeared not to realize the killing that had taken place.
A Daily Mail review of police records has since revealed that the 35-year-old has spent most of his life in and out of prison.
He was even out on bail and was awaiting trial for misusing 911 when he allegedly stabbed the Ukrainian refugee.
But a GoFundMe insists Brown was just the victim of a broken judicial system, as it raised money for his legal funds.
