Chapter 1: What triggered the discussion about the North Carolina murder case?
The man accused of killing a young woman in North Carolina light train has been deemed incompetent to stand trial in a state case following a mental evaluation according to newly released court documents. Can you imagine this? He's incompetent to do that. The Carlos Brown Jr. 34 is charged in the fatal stabbing of Ukrainian woman Irina
Zarutska, 23, aboard light rail Lynx Blue Line in Charlotte, August 22nd, 2025. This is less than a year ago. However, a report stemming from Brown's time as a patient at Central Regional Hospital determined he was incapable to proceed in the upcoming state criminal trial, according to court documents obtained by Fox News.
This is separate from a federal case that he is also facing stemming from alleged attack. Brown, a homeless man diagnosed with schizo, is currently in federal custody on separate charges relating to the alleged murder. Vinny, I'm coming to you first, and Aviva, I'm coming to you next.
Well, they left out the part where he walked away and said, I got a white girl. I got a white girl. Crazy people aren't... That's a mission that he was on to do. And mind you, Pat, he was arrested 14 times since 2007. And the crimes included assault, armed robbery, breaking and entering, firearm possession, other felony offenses. They said he got schizophrenia diagnosis.
His own mother warned the courts, Tom, that he should not...
be on the streets and just before killing her he was released again on a cashless bail and then he ran on the train stabbed her in the neck that's complete and total failure if you guys remember jeffrey dahmer murdered 17 people dismembered their bodies ate some of them ate some of them found competent for trial i think this is complete bs okay uh so for 14 times offender, Pat.
This is the system. This is the system failing, and it's absolute BS. And it happens all, this is just one time that it's happening, and they keep blaming this insanity nonsense. You guys kept letting him get out, and this happens way too much, Pat. It happens way too much. It's not slipping through the cracks. They don't give a damn.

Chapter 2: Why was the suspect deemed incompetent to stand trial?
They don't care. How are you arrested 14 times? How? And you keep getting put on the street, and your mother says that you shouldn't be on the street, and then he doesn't. It's just an excuse. It's just an excuse.
Rob, what is this? He just showed up?
This is all of his mug shots over the years, the 14 times that he's been arrested.
Are you sure that bottom left one is him?
The second one in from the left, I'm not sure about that one, but I know the rest are.
This was the graphic that was widely circulating of all of his arrests. Wow. So, Viva, how do you process this yourself? Well, it could be one of the cases where someone is legally, mentally incompetent to stand trial because they are in a state... My best friend's father growing up was a criminal lawyer, still is.
He told us of one of these cases where a guy does cocaine for the first time in his life, has a total psychotic break, is dissociated from his body, goes to a random person's house, and beats them to death with a crowbar. And then the argument is not that he's innocent, but that...
He did cocaine, and that's voluntary intoxication, but that he's criminally not responsible for what happened afterwards because it was literally like being an automaton. There are limits to that defense, and he wasn't defending himself on the basis of innocence, but rather temporary insanity. In a case like this, the guy has a history of schizophrenia. It is an institutional failure.
There's zero question about that. We live in a world now where you empower mental illness instead of treating it. And so they say, you can't institutionalize these people because you have to respect autonomy of individuals and leave schizos who are violent and dangerous on the streets because you can't involuntarily confine them anymore.

Chapter 3: What role does mental illness play in criminal accountability?
But him being found criminally incompetent to stand trial, he's not going to go free. He'll be institutionalized, hopefully for the rest of his life, because once you do something like that in a dissociative state, you are forever a risk to society. But it's not like he's going to walk free.
This might be one of those cases of a systematic failure of the institutions, but a man who is clearly out of his mind and insane.
Look, you know what? California's got the three strikes laws. And once we determine that someone who's committing violent crimes, and look, he had a history of violent crimes. Not all of those mugshots were for violent crimes, but good Lord, let's just assume that one picture is not there. We have 13. Let's say it's not 14.
Chapter 4: How many times was the suspect arrested prior to the murder?
Let's say it's 13. And some of those were violent. So therefore, what failed was you didn't get this guy into an institution or figure out what to do with him so he's not back out on the streets. And what with the most galling part of this is it's it's on the liberal side. And there is a line of thought that is in liberal politics that it's not really the victim's fault.
It's society's inequality and unfairness that drives people to steal, to do this, to respond, to do things like that. And therefore, we should have. compassion for the criminal. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. The state of North Carolina, whoever is responsible for those 13 instances and run-ins with this guy, you failed. You failed.
And I believe that the family has a cause against the state for gross negligence of executing. Why do we execute the principles of our justice systems for? to keep the city safe for everyone else so that the law-abiding citizens that are doing the right things, living the right lives, don't have to live in fear because we have these defective units are out there, regardless of how it happens.
David, it happens permanently by the willing use of street drugs that causes permanent... Permanent psychosis. It's like, OK, well, you made the choice and now you're defective and we got to do something with you, but we can't keep turning you back on the street. And I am it's like we don't need, you know, three strikes laws like we had in California for kids with three, you know, drug sales.
And two of them were selling marijuana. We had kids in California. The two other three, three strikes were sale of marijuana. You step back and go, whoa, then that three strikes law failed. But in this case, come on.
It's the meme, like send in a social worker. That's what they would have done with an individual like this. He should have been institutionalized. And you need to bring back mental institutions to some extent, because right now the prison system is the de facto mental institution. Exactly.
Well, I remember there used to be insane asylums in this country. Right now there are mental health facilities. Or they're just put in jail, and then the cops have to deal with them. By the way, if you've ever seen the old Tonight Show, and Johnny Carson would make jokes about Camarillo.
The reason he made jokes about Camarillo, California, because there was an institution that was run by the state that was for these people. But in combination of budget cuts and what the liberals called, you know, criminal justice reform, they shut them down. And so there it is, California State Mental Hospital.
And part of it was incarcerated and part of it was people that were developmental disabilities and mental health in Camarillo. Is this on screen, Rob? Yes. This is when Johnny Carson would say, well, you know, Ed, you got to be careful there. They might send you off to Camarillo. And that was Johnny Carson making jokes about this.

Chapter 5: What systemic failures are highlighted in this case?
But Camarillo was known as this place with it. And guess what? The liberals got it closed. They closed it. They defunded it. And where did those people go? They became homeless or on the street or the justice, the justice system in California didn't have a place for them. So the systems have failed the honest law abiding citizens.
I mean, you can never take anything away from the Camarillo outlets. To the people who live in that area, you know what I'm talking about. It's hands down one of the best outlets. And right outside of Thousand Oaks, Camarillo is now a much better facility. I'm sure there's still some crazy people there, but... You know, I have a lot of memories of doing a lot of things in Camarillo.
But, you know, you're right when you think about that, right? There's levels of crazy, okay? So what if Trump is talking about he wants to reopen Alcatraz, okay? If he's talking about he wants to open up Alcatraz, I just don't think I want to put these guys in a crazy place. I don't think that's enough of an example to make.
It needs to be an example for the guy that's flirting with being crazy to say, I am not wanting that to happen to me. What percentage is going to be like, you know what, I'm not doing this. If it helps 30%, 40%, do it. If it helps those to say, I'm not willing to go to this level, do it.
You put me in a mental institution, you're going to feed me for the rest of my life, give me a house with a roof over my head. You know what? All right, cool. That's not that bad. I'll go hang out with other crazies like myself. You understand where the thought process goes to.
I'm not worried about that guy or how he feels. I'm worried about the person that he kills. And their family. We have to stop putting ourselves in the criminal's shoes. Well, you have to understand, he had a tough life. You have to understand, his father wasn't there for him. He murdered a seven-year-old girl. He murdered a poor, innocent woman. Why are we giving him the benefit of the doubt?
The man is an absolute menace to society. This soft-on-crime nonsense is perplexing. Pat, what's the thing you always say? Whatever the situation, genetics loads the gun. That your personality aims the gun, but then your life experiences pull the trigger? Whatever it is, these people, you said three strikes, you're out. This guy's, how many times have you been in jail?
I was in California three strikes long. How many times has he been in jail? 14 times? This guy should have had the death penalty already. Oh, Adam, you're way too aggressive on crime.
Why are you screaming so much today? How much, like you've been screaming nonstop all day, and we're sitting right next to you on every story you're screaming. And I'm the angry patriot. Oh, my God.

Chapter 6: How do societal views on mental illness affect public safety?
There is a middle ground. The pendulum is clearly swung way too far to one side. Doesn't need to swing all the way back to the other. They need to be brought back. Violent, schizophrenic, mentally ill criminals need to be institutionalized, medicated, put on a regiment in order for them to be released into free society.
You ever see the show Always Sunny in Philadelphia? You know, they had this conversation. I don't want to make light of the situation, but this is sort of a humorous approach to what we're talking about right now. You ever see the show Always Sunny in Philadelphia? There's a great scene right there where Frank Reynolds, Danny DeVito, he was in a mental institution.
He was institutionalized for having donkey brains. And his son, Dennis, and his daughter went to go see what the men's institution was like. And they go, why is this place closed? There's crazy people walking on the streets. And he goes, yeah, it's a lot of money to keep this open. They've got to tax us more. And this is the scene. He goes, tax us more? They already taxed us enough.
I'm not paying any more taxes. She goes, I guess we're just going to let crazy people on the street. Crazy people on the street? We can't have crazy people on the street. We've got to put them away. I guess we've got to raise the taxes.
getting my taxes raised enough's enough here i guess we got to open a medicine institution and it goes back and forth and back and forth do you want taxes to take care of this do you want to take care of crazy people this is the crazy part of this is that there's no clear answer here do we want to tax people more do we want crazy people off the street the reality is we want low taxes and no crazy people but what's the solution here's the good news to give all of you guys
