I wish I could say I was surprised, but I’m really not… Charlotte is just as big of a shithole as any other Democrat controlled city, even being in North Carolina…. That’s why alleged killer DeCarlos Brown will not stand trial for his alleged knifing death of Iryna Zarutska.
The deranged homeless man accused of savagely butchering Iryna Zarutska, a 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee, on a Charlotte light rail train has been found “incapable to proceed” on state murder charges.
According to a motion filed April 7, Decarlos Brown Jr. was evaluated Dec. 29 at Central Regional Hospital, and the subsequent report determined he was not competent to stand trial, according to WBTV. His attorney has asked the court to delay his competency hearing by 180 days.
The results were previously sealed in state court and were only revealed as the motion was filed.
Prosecutors did not object to the requested 180-day delay of Brown’s Rule 24 hearing, which was previously scheduled for April 30, which will determine whether he is fit to proceed with a potential death penalty trial.
Brown is also facing federal charges — and will remain in custody on that case, his lawyer Daniel Roberts said.
A judge must now determine whether to accept the report’s findings, and the case against him will likely be delayed until his capacity is determined to be “restored” by the court, the station reported.
In the motion filed by Brown’s public defender, he claimed the court-required capacity hearing cannot take place with the accused killer in federal custody, and that the court also can’t order to have his capacity restored.
