Hend Bustami gains national attention after a dine-and-dash arrest at an airport restaurant.

Bustami says the arresting officer are "perverts' who have "never seen anyone as pretty" as her. Days later Bustami calls 911, telling the operator she has killed her mother.

It's just another example of criminals who claim they are 'TOO PRETTY FOR JAIL."

Desperate Search For Nancy Guthrie Enters Week 4 | Crime Alert 6AM 02.23.26

A mural of murdered Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska has been vandalized and graffitied with spray paint.

"PLEASE VANDALIZE THIS,” the tagger scrawled.

The tribute had been complete for less than two weeks before the damage.

Iryna Zarutska, a Ukrainian refugee, came to the United States with her family to escape her war-torn country for a better life. Iryna took English classes, had a job and was making a productive life for herself, but all her aspirations were cut short by an unprovoked violent attack from a man with a criminal history.

Video shows Iryna getting on the train in Charlotte, North Carolina, taking a seat, and looking at her phone quietly. Video shows a passenger sitting directly behind Iryna, who we later came to know as Carlos Brown Jr.

A close-up of Brown's hands can be seen opening and unfolding the knife in order to prepare to stand up to stab Iryna. Although Iryna's hat covers a lot of her face, the shock in her eyes, along with the terror she silently expressed during her final moments of life, bleeding out, surrounded by panic, is heartbreaking to watch.

The video also shows Brown, in an orange hoodie, walking the aisles of the train with blood dripping on the floor. One passenger notices blood drops and avoids stepping in them, while another witness on the phone with 911 tells them a man just stabbed a woman for no reason, and she needs help.

Moments after allegedly stabbing Iryna, Brown is captured on video nonchalantly walking the platform of the train station.

On the train, Brown was wearing a hoodie; now he is wearing a black t-shirt, with the now bloody hoodie wrapped around his hands.

In reaction to the shocking and violent death of Iryna Zarutska, North Carolina Governor Josh Stein just signed "Iryna's Law" into effect, increasing checks on criminals getting out on bail and prohibiting cashless bail for some violent crimes and most repeat offenders.

A grand jury indicted Brown for the murder of Iryna, formally charging him with first-degree murder. Brown is being held without bond in the county jail, but an order was filed for him to be committed to Central Regional Hospital.

Allegedly, he has been diagnosed with schizophrenia and also has a lengthy rap sheet of criminal behavior.
