Where's the Justice For Victims of Violent Crime?

As is commonplace in American cities in 2026, a man with a serious criminal history just attempted to murder countless innocent people in broad daylight.

Footage from multiple eye-witnesses captured Tyler Brown, a man who attempted to murder Boston police officers but was given a light sentence by an activist judge, firing an AR-style rifle indiscriminately in Cambridge, Massachusetts before receiving a non-fatal gunshot wound from a state trooper.

Again, Brown attempted to kill cops back in 2020. He fired 13 rounds at officers during that incident. At the time, he was on probation for “stabbing and witness intimidation," according to local news outlets. A judge gave him just a five year sentence, where he got out “after just a few years.”

We saw the same story with Iryna Zarutska’s killer, Decarlos Dejuan Brown Jr.. Dejuan Brown, who has had one of the longest criminal histories in recollection, was granted early release from his sentence before he went on to kill Zarutska. He was later deemed incapable of standing trial.

A society that gleefully allows hardened, unrepentant criminals to have endless to innocent victims isn’t a society that will last for long. Leftist judges and prosecutors work tirelessly to ensure that people like Tyler Brown or Decarlos Brown Jr. are free to abuse and torment innocents again.

It’s beyond time to create a legal framework to hold those who release criminals into the streets accountable for their actions.
