The AP’s Tweet On Kate Steinle’s Murderer Leaves Out One Convenient Detail

Jose Ines Garcia Zarate– the 5-time-deported illegal immigrant who killed Kate Steinle but was found NOT GUILTY of second degree murder– has been sentenced to three years in prison. If you recall, he only got in trouble for being a felon in possession of a weapon. However, he was credited with time served.

Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, who has been in custody since shortly after the shooting, was credited for time served. He will be on parole for 48 months and will remain in custody to face federal charges.

The case sparked national debate over immigration reform and so-called Sanctuary Cities that shield illegals from deportation, of which San Francisco is one.

The felony possession was the only conviction to come out of Garcia Zarate’s trial in November. The jury decided Steinle’s death, the result of a ricochet bullet fired from roughly 100 feet away, was an accident.

At a hearing Friday, Garcia Zarate entered the courtroom wearing huge oversized bright orange sweatshirt and sweatpants. He was uncuffed and smiling as he shook the hand of each member of his defense team, including new attorney Tony Serra.

He was SMILING. Ugh. That burns me up inside. You have no idea. And it makes me even MORE upset to hear that “public defenders” are calling the sentence “discriminatory.” Um, this man murdered an innocent woman, and he WASN’T EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE.

On Friday, Serra blasted the federal government for filing federal charges against Garcia Zarate after he was cleared of most state charges.

“Shame on the federal government, shame on the Trump administration. Shame on them in terms of bringing a retaliatory, vindictive prosecution,” Serra said. “So we will take those issues on.”

Cry me a river.

Still No Justice For Kate Steinle, Illegal Alien Shooter Sentenced To Time Served For Gun Charge https://t.co/WJMUg2w1PW

As a resident and legal voter of #California I am speechless about the turn of events in the Kate Steinle Murder. There is no justice in California for citizens. Illegals are the protected class.
What a Slap 👋 in the face to the Steinlie Family. Travesty of Justice To All!

I don’t stand with the state of California. I don’t stand with illegal aliens who sneak across our borders. I don’t stand with liberal politicians who put the interests of illegal aliens before American citizens.

To be blunt, I stand with Kate Steinle. She had dreams too.

But here’s what REALLY gets me going. Look at the AP’s version of this story.

BREAKING: Immigrant acquitted of killing woman on San Francisco pier is sentenced to time served for gun charge.

— The Associated Press (@AP) January 5, 2018

In the AP’s version, an immigrant was just at the wrong place at the wrong time and accidentally killed a woman. The end.

In reality, a CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIEN murdered a woman named KATE STEINLE.

Does the woman have a name b/c you’ve got 280 characters now….

This tweet is so irresponsible – please follow up.

You misspelled “illegal.”

Pretty shameful that @AP can’t even say her name… Kate Steinle. She was murdered by an illegal alien who was deported several times after multiple felonies. Then they let him off the hook. Disgusting.

Awful tweet by the @AP.

Her name was KATE STEINLE.

He is NOT an immigrant. He is a CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIEN. pic.twitter.com/pnZ1lhaDwi

Shame on the AP. I’m disgusted.

What a complete travesty of justice.I am so sorry for the pain this must cause the Steinle family! This proves that the government in California and San Francisco in general is only run by super left-leaning individuals & must be broken up. What a disgrace 2Justice & this country

If you have to kill someone in California, make sure you are an illegal alien.
