Dem Rep Complains Mural to Murdered Iryna Zarutska Doesn’t Reflect City’s ‘Values.’

David Morales, a Democrat state representative and mayoral candidate in Providence, Rhode Island, has called for a mural of Iryna Zarutska, the Ukrainian refugee murdered by a serial criminal in Charlotte, North Carolina, to be removed. Morales described the mural as being out-of-step with the city’s values, saying: “Ultimately, we want to make sure that every community member that calls Providence home feels safe… this mural behind us does not reflect Providence’s values.”
