PF1 Friday Minisode: Left's Aversion to Honoring Victims of Violent Crime

About this episode

The episode discusses the aversion of blue cities to memorializing victims of violent crime, focusing on the case of Iryna Zarutska.

Iryna Zarutska, the 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee who was stabbed to death on a light rail train in Charlotte, NC, by a deranged homeless man with a long rap sheet is being remembered by murals all over the country. But in blue cities, these memorials seem to be unwelcome. In Providence, RI, where one is being removed, democratic officials say it doesn't uphold their values. This week, Miranda wonders what those values may be. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
