Based on available evidence, here is my assessment of the claim:

Reasoning:

• Darializa Avila Chevalier identifies as a "prison abolitionist" and "decarceralist" in interviews¹.
• When directly asked whether a man who randomly killed another man should be incarcerated, she repeatedly avoided giving a direct answer, instead pivoting to abstract critiques of the prison system²¹.
• She acknowledged that in the current world, incarceration is what happens, but did not endorse it as what should happen¹.
• When pressed with "what do you do to the murderer though?" and "do you not incarcerate the murderer?" she continued to evade a straightforward answer, instead discussing harm reduction and preventing cycles of trauma¹.
• The New York Times noted she "repeatedly avoided answering whether she would send a man who randomly killed another man to prison"².

While her prison abolitionist ideology suggests opposition to incarceration generally, the sources do not show her explicitly stating that murderers should not be incarcerated. Rather, she was notably evasive when directly questioned on this point. The claim overstates a definitively stated position.

Overall validity: 55%
