"This heinous crime is heartbreaking. But it didn’t come out of nowhere. My office requested the perpetrator be detained after he committed a previous violent crime," State's Attorney Eileen O'Neill Burke said.  "The judge denied our request. This was a tragedy. But it never should have happened." Burke announced that her office will now push for detention in all cases involving violent felony offenses committed on public transit.
