Slain Girl’s Father Slams Policies Freeing Repeat Offender

After the stabbing of Iryna Zaratska on the Charlotte light rail, judges have been under scrutiny for leniency toward repeated offenders.

Zarutska's alleged offender, Decarlos Brown Jr., was out on cashless bail and had been previously arrested 14 times. Currently, North Carolina Governor Josh Stein has a bill on his desk awaiting to be signed, dubbed "Iryna's Law," that would limit cashless bail and reinstate the death penalty. Even President Donald Trump weighed in on the incident, calling Brown an "ANIMAL."

But after the chilling statements of another killing by a repeat offender, the father of Logan Federico is determined to make people remember her name.

He exploded like a powder keg during a House Judiciary Field Hearing in Charlotte, North Carolina, to address concerns about crime and repeated offenders.

Steve shared the story of his daughter, 22-year-old Logan, who was shot and killed following a break-in in Columbia, South Carolina.

Before he told his story, he encouraged witnesses to "think about their kids." Through tears, he shared how his daughter was dragged out of bed and killed.

"You know how much time he spent in prison, a little over 600 days," he added.
