The Hard Truth About the Sanctuary Movement - Imprimis

The Hard Truth About the Sanctuary Movement - Imprimis - Sean Davis
  • On July 1, 2015, 32-year-old Kathryn “Kate” Steinle was killed while sightseeing in San Francisco with her father and a family friend... she was shot in the back by Jose Inez Garcia-Zarate, an illegal immigrant from Mexico with a lengthy criminal record...
  • Although it seems impossible, the story gets worse. Garcia-Zarate claimed that he had accidentally picked up and fired the pistol that killed Steinle, and a San Francisco jury found him innocent of murder...
  • In the end, Garcia-Zarate was simply deported in 2024—three decades after his first of seven illegal incursions into the U.S. and nearly nine years after he killed Kate Steinle.
Such is life, death, and injustice in a so-called sanctuary city like San Francisco and a sanctuary state like California. 
How could this happen? 
How could a foreign national 
  • repeatedly enter our country, 
  • violate our laws, 
  • kill one of our fellow citizens, and 
  • never be held accountable? 
To answer this question, you have to understand the nature of the sanctuary movement in America and the threat it poses to the safety and security of Americans and to the rule of law.
