Mexican man not guilty in San Francisco pier killing - GoFuckYourself.com

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - A jury on Thursday found a Mexican man not guilty of murder in the killing of a woman on a San Francisco pier that touched off a national immigration debate two years ago.

Jose Ines Garcia Zarate had been deported five times and was wanted for a sixth deportation when Kate Steinle was fatally shot in the back while walking with her father on the pier.

Garcia Zarate did not deny shooting Steinle and said it was an accident.

The shooting came in the middle of the presidential campaign in July 2015 and touched off a fierce debate over the country's immigration policies. It spotlighted San Francisco's "sanctuary city" policy, which limits local officials from cooperating with U.S. immigration authorities.

Politics, however, did not come up in the month-long trial that featured extensive testimony from ballistics experts. Defense attorneys argued that Garcia Zarate was a hapless homeless man who killed Steinle in a freak accident. Prosecutors said he meant to shoot and kill her.

Garcia Zarate was found guilty of being a felon in possession of a firearm.

San Francisco Deputy District Attorney Diana Garcia said during the trial that she didn't know why Garcia Zarate fired the weapon, but he created a risk of death by bringing the firearm to the pier and twirling around on a chair for at least 20 minutes before he fired.

"He did kill someone. He took the life of a young, vibrant, beautiful, cherished woman by the name of Kate Steinle," she said.

Defense attorney Matt Gonzalez said in his closing argument that he knows it's difficult to believe Garcia Zarate found an object that turned out to be a weapon, which fired when he picked it up.

But he told jurors that Garcia Zarate had no motivation to kill Steinle and that as awful as her death was, "nothing you do is going to fix that."

The bullet ricocheted on the pier's concrete walkway and fatally struck Steinle in the back.

The gun was stolen from the SUV of a U.S. Bureau of Land Management ranger that was parked in San Francisco. The city has been plagued by an epidemic of car burglaries in recent years.

Before the shooting, Garcia Zarate had finished a federal prison sentence for illegal re-entry into the United States and had been transferred to San Francisco's jail in March 2015 to face a 20-year-old charge for selling marijuana.

The sheriff's department released him a few days later after prosecutors dropped the marijuana charge, despite a request from federal immigration officials to detain him for deportation.

President Donald Trump said during the presidential campaign that Steinle's death was another reason the United States needed to build a wall on its southern border and tighten its immigration policies.

Trump signed an executive order to withhold funding from sanctuary cities, but a federal judge recently blocked it in a lawsuit from two California counties, San Francisco and Santa Clara. The administration has appealed.

This is most interesting.

Prosecutors built a case around how this man intentionally shot and killed a complete stranger for no reason. The defense claims he picked up a handgun he found, and he it went off in his hand striking and killing the woman - rather, striking the pier and then hitting the woman.

Seems to me the Prosecutors should have gone for involuntary manslaughter.

So more reading on this....

They are trying to say he picked up the weapon and pointed it at the woman who died. It seems the bullet hit the ground and then traveled 80 feet to hit and kill the women.

Pretty obvious he didn't intentionally shoot her.

At first he said he was shooting at animals. But then changed his mind. He found it in a shirt, it went off when he removed it.

Changed his story so many times, he's full of shit, why'd he even pull it out ? Something bad will happen to him I think.
