Newly released bodycam footage shows Decarlos Brown Jr., a light rail murder suspect, claiming to officers that a “man-made material” was controlling his body months before he allegedly stabbed Iryna Zarutska to death. In a January welfare check, Brown reported that this material affected his bodily functions and insisted on an investigation. Despite previous diagnoses of schizophrenia, he asserted he was “mentally perfect.” Brown has an extensive criminal history and was arrested for misusing the 911 system during this incident.
