Former Lawyers for Illegal Alien Who Killed Kate Steinle Lobby Biden for His Release
Former lawyers for the illegal alien who killed Kate Steinle are lobbying Joe Biden for his release.
Steinle was shot and killed by Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, an illegal immigrant, while walking on a California pier with her father in 2015. The illegal immigrant claimed that he had found the weapon and was attempting to shoot a sea lion.
Garcia-Zarate had been deported five times and convicted of seven felonies before killing Steinle, but was acquitted of all murder and manslaughter charges. He was ultimately only convicted of being an ex-felon in possession of a gun.
That ruling was overturned by an appellate court, since Garcia-Zarate was in possession of the weapon for “only a moment.” It did not matter that it only took him a moment to kill Steinle.
