In an interview you'll see only on ABC7 News, the man accused of shooting and killing a young woman at San Francisco's Pier 14 admitted to the crime and talked about where he got the gun.
Francisco Sanchez didn't recall every detail because he says he doesn't remember everything that happened. But in the 45 minute jailhouse interview, he revealed how the shooting went down and why he kept returning to the United States after being deported numerous times.
Barnard: "Did you shoot Kate Steinle, the lady who was down at Pier 14." Sanchez: "Yes." Barnard: "You did shoot her?" Sanchez: "Mm hm," he said with a nod.
Steinle was shot and killed near the Ferry Building on Wednesday. Sanchez tells ABC7 News that the shooting was an accident. He says he was wandering on Pier 14 after taking sleeping pills he found in a dumpster.
Barnard: "Where did you get the gun?" Sanchez: "In the ground. When the... when the... over there in the bench, um, um, I put my leg and I see the one T-shirt and then see over there something like that."
He claims a gun was wrapped in that T-shirt and that it went off when he picked it up.
"Then suddenly I heard that boom boom, three times," Sanchez said.

He appeared frail and nervous when he talked about returning to the U.S. after being deported back to his native Mexico five times.
Barnard: "Why did you keep coming back to the U.S., why did you come back to San Francisco?" Sanchez: "Because I was looking for jobs in the restaurant or roofing, landscaping, or construction."
Sanchez said he knew San Francisco was a sanctuary city where he would not be pursued by immigration officials.

Far better for the world that he appear dead.
Did he admit Donald Trump was right!!
Jeb has already answered that question - it was an act of love.
Well that should shut the Donald up then. Apparently you can shoot innocent people in sf if you’re an “undocumented person” i.e., trespasser, with no reprecussions. At least that’s what the multi-deported assclown was thinkin’. I mean, really. With all the money the govt spends on stupid crap, can’t we put some “folks” to work and build an actual barricade? For all the $$$$ wasted on writing new rules and regs for mud puddles, we probably could have built at least a few feet of barricade. New meaning for the term “FED up”.
I am right near San Francisco and I am hearing nothing about this on the radio at all.
I don’t watch TV.
I am totally outraged but I am wondering if other people are hearing about this very much and I have my doubts.
Que?
The gun wrapped in a tee shirt went off 3 times by its self and was able to hit some thing.
Sure it did.
Some people are just heartless I guess. I learned that fro Rick Perry.
We need wrap control laws and we need them NOW!
Killer racist wrap oppressed the blesses innocent immigrant!!!
I’m surprised the media reporting it as much as they are. Of course they’re doing it in spite of themselves - I think the Trump thing has given the incident exposure it would not have ordinarily had.
If you can believe it liberals were trying to excuse this guy last night on Huffington, awww he took sleeping pills and it was an accident blah blah....Yeah, so are the thousands of drunk driving ACCIDENTS done by illegals that kill THOUSANDS of people. It’s amazing how far they will go to support this just so they can import votes.
For years I have asked why victims of illegals do not file a RICO suit against these cities.
No one seems to know why it never gets brought up.
Same thing with an MS 13 guy from Honduras about 5 years ago.
he had a minor traffic altercation and he killed every person in the car he bumped, except for the mom, who was at home.
Her family went out to bring home pizza and they were all murdered.
The feds had been trying to deport him FOR YEARS but San Francisco protected him.
The gun just went off.
It must be one of the those evil guns that go around shooting people on its own. Francisco was just an innocent bystander when the gun went crazy.
It went off 3 TIMES!
I realize who runs ICE and Justice but I have yet to see a legal explanation how the existence of a ‘sanctuary City’ is not in and of itself a federal obstruction of justice violation.
“...it went off when he picked it up.”
So, if they can find just one fingerprint on any of the cartridges, or on any part of the magazine that is not exposed, then it seems to me that his story completely falls apart. Good Luck to the forensic boys!!
