One of the most consequential laws taking effect Monday is Iryna’s Law, named after Iryna Zarutska, who was killed on Charlotte’s light rail last year. The man accused in her death had a lengthy criminal record and had been released multiple times without paying bail.
Under the new law, judges and magistrates must follow stricter pretrial release standards for individuals charged with violent offenses, limiting when “cashless bail” can be used. Courts may also order earlier mental-health evaluations following an arrest.
The law additionally requires the state to be prepared with alternative execution methods—including the electric chair or a firing squad—if lethal injection becomes unavailable.
Supporters say the law closes serious gaps in the pretrial system; critics warn it may increase jail populations and strain county resources. #News #Politics
