Crime runs deep in Decarlos Brown Jr.'s family. The homeless felon now accused of stabbing a young Ukrainian commuter to death on a Charlotte light rail train comes from a household where run-ins with the law have been a way of life.

Court records and law enforcement documents viewed by Fox News Digital reveal a disturbing family legacy: Stacey Dejon Brown, the older brother of the alleged killer, is locked up on a 27- to-36-year sentence for the 2012 shotgun slaying of a 65-year-old man during a robbery.

His sister, 33-year-old Tracey Vontrea Brown, has a criminal record that includes misdemeanor shoplifting, larceny, felony conspiracy, vehicle theft and resisting public officers, with her most recent arrests coming in 2024 for misdemeanor larceny, felony conspiracy and shoplifting, according to Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office records viewed by Fox News Digital.

Their father, Decarlos Brown Sr., has been arrested for allegedly breaking and entering, felony conspiracy, larceny and possession of a weapon on a university campus, according to the New York Post. Brown Sr. could not be reached for comment.

Together, these cases show a cycle of crime spanning generations, now culminating in Brown Jr.’s federal charge in the August 2025 killing of 23-year-old Iryna Zarutska, a refugee who fled her war-torn city in Ukraine only to lose her life in a random, unprovoked attack on American soil.

Brown Jr.’s brother, Stacey, used the Charlotte light rail to flee police apprehension in a 2012 Queen City murder.

According to a press release from the Mecklenburg County District Attorney’s Office and coverage by WBTV, then-22-year-old Stacey Brown pleaded guilty in April 2014 to a string of violent offenses, including second-degree murder, two counts of robbery with a dangerous weapon, assault with intent to kill and breaking or entering a motor vehicle, all tied to the October 2012 fatal shooting of 65-year-old Robert Heym during a robbery.

Prosecutors revealed that after gunning down Heym, Stacey and his accomplice, Roderick Derrick Crawford, 21, boarded the train and made their exit at the transit center.

Killing someone with a shotgun during a robbery should be a life without parole sentence. Th8s is just crazy.

And to think, if a white guy stood up and stopped him, Charlotte would have burned...

Not surprising. There was zero chance he grew up in a functional household.

Sounds like a typical democrat family.

And none of them have ever paid one dime in income tax.

Right there are three of the 886,000 (2% of the 13%) who commit over 50% of the violent crime in the United States.

That’s why I’m so adamant about major welfare reform. It produces people like this.

That article will just make it easier for vapid white women to justify in their minds that this murderous savage is the victim.

Crazy thing is law enforcement knows the people and areas who commit the vast majority of the violent crimes. Its such an easy fix but apparently no desire to do so
