Kathryn Steinle’s Fellow Victims

The forgotten murdered police and teenagers of America.

Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez, also known as José Inez García Zarate, is a felon who has been deported five times. Lopez-Sanchez is charged in the shooting death of Kathryn Steinle, 32, by all indications a distinguished and compassionate woman. As it happens, victims of foreign nationals in the United States illegally are not limited to innocent civilians. They include police officers such as Danny Oliver.

Last October, Luis Enriquez Monroy Bracamontes, a Mexican national in the United States illegally, gunned down Oliver, 47, a Sacramento County Sheriff’s deputy. Bracamontes shot Oliver in the head with a 9mm handgun but the killer and his wife Janelle Marquez Monroy also packed an AR-15 rifle. After killing Danny Oliver, Bracamontes and Monroy shot Anthony Holmes, a motorist who refused to give up his car. Holmes survived the shooting but later Bracamontes killed police detective Michael Davis with the AR-15 and wounded Jeff Davis, a deputy. Bracamontes also fired at Placer County deputies Charles Bardo and Joseph Roseli before being captured and arrested.

At the time Bracamontes was going by the alias “Marquez,” and it emerged that he had used at least five aliases and two Facebook names. He had been arrested multiple times in Arizona on drug and weapons charges. As the Sacramento Bee put it, “He was deported to Mexico twice, but managed to return to the United States illegally.” Reports also said Bracamontes had “repeatedly” entered the country illegally.

“I killed them cops,” Bracamontes told a judge in February before demanding an execution date. In March he joked he couldn’t make the next hearing because, as he said, “I’m busy.”

Rep. Ami Bera, a northern California Democrat, invited the slain officer’s wife Susan Oliver, an African American, to president Obama’s State of the Union Speech. Her message was “build unity between citizens and law enforcement” but the president ignored the case, despite Bracamonte’s use of a military-style weapon. The Mexican national still faces counts of first-degree murder with five special circumstance allegations, including killing law enforcement officers, committing multiple murders, murder to avoid arrest, and murder during a carjacking or attempted carjacking.

After the killings, Sacramento County Sheriff Scott Jones posted a video urging federal officials to seal the border and noting that the person who killed Danny Oliver “is in this country illegally from Mexico. He has a significant criminal history and on at least four prior occasions he was removed from this country, each time having no consequences for his actions.” President Obama subsequently adopted a policy that would let thousands of illegals seek legal status, without taking steps to seal the border that Luis Enriquez Monroy Bracamontes “repeatedly” breached with no difficulty and no consequences.

Mexican nationals Saul Isidro-Aucencio and Francisco Delgado also breached the border with no difficulty. In February 2011 the pair shot and killed Americans Robert Corpos, 20, Richard Ward, 16, and, Jamir Miller, 15, an African American. The illegals shot Miller in the head from behind with an AK-47. They shot Corpos, father of an 18-month-old boy, in the back as he sought cover behind a tree.

. Local media did not identify the killers as illegals but Melissa Jellison, Jamir Miller’s mother, discovered their status and at the sentencing she expressed anger that her son’s killers were in the country illegally. The grieving mother got no sympathy from Superior Court judge Helene Gweon, a Schwarzenegger appointee who earned her JD at Harvard Law School and her BA at UC Berkeley.

“This case,” said Gweon, “has nothing to do with illegal aliens.” The judge’s pronouncement had local law enforcement officials shaking their heads.

Meanwhile, a New York Times report on the Steinle shooting noted that Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez had been deported five times, “raising questions about why he was in the United States.” Like Bracamontes, Delgado and Isidro-Aucencio, he repeated entered illegally.

Lopez-Sanchez had been serving 46 months in a southern California federal prison and there was some mystery why he was returned to San Francisco to face a 20-year-old marijuana charge. As the San Francisco Chronicle reports, “the Sheriff’s Department asked federal officials to do so,” in a letter the Chronicle obtained. The office of San Francisco Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi duly released Lopez-Sanchez on April 15. On July 1, police arrested Lopez-Sanchez in the shooting death of Kathryn Steinle.

Mirkarimi, a former Green Party member turned Democrat, faced domestic abuse charges in 2011 and pleaded guilty to one charge of false imprisonment. As the San Jose Mercury News reports, because of his conviction Mirkarimi “became the first San Francisco sheriff to be barred from carrying a firearm.” The disarmed sheriff may be trying to compensate through his uniform, which bears four stars on each epaulet and resembles something a Soviet general might have worn.

There have been many, many more atrocities committed by the illegals: my nephew, Deputy David March was shot to death by Jorge Arroyo Garcia, an illegal immigrant during a routine traffic stop on April 29th, 2002. When he pulled Garcia's car over, Garcia came out shooting and found openings in Dave's vest to instantly disable him and then stood over him to finish him off with a head shot.

It took over four years for Mexico to stop protecting him and extradite him to face trial in the US and even then, the death penalty had to be waived.

We need to stop the flow of illegals, deport the criminals, and punish Mexico for its crimes against us.

Interesting thing, I listened to Walkers’s announcement speech yesterday. I was very very interested in hearing what he had to say about the illegal invasion on our southern border.
CRICKETS.
Only thing is, while I have never heard a cricket here in the desert, I have heard gunfire in the mountains. I have seen the spotters’ fires near their cave entrances. I have seen their trash left in the washes and the canyons. Hell, I have seen illegals walking down the road near my house. I have even had two walk up to my garage and ask directions to Phoenix.

But from Walker last night. Zero. Zip. nada. Nothing.

I am so sorry for your loss...
.....maybe soon you and all the others like you will finally see justice!

Why was the death penalty taken off the table?

[Guenevere]

I just read your post to my husband....it really resonates.

For a while, he was slightly leaning Walker.....
But with Tonette’s revelation.....and Walker’s iffy illegal wording....
Meh!

Thanks very much for posting. Condolences to you and the remainder of your nephew’s family and friends. Thanks for speaking up. 100’s of cable channels and the innocent victims of criminals have no voice. Talk radio…no voice. The internet…the information superhighway…very little. The perps…representation…rehabilitation…anti-discrimination…voices everywhere with amplification.

R.I.P. Deputy David March.

no justice, no peace.

be prepared.

Thanks, Tupelo. Good observation and first-hand information. Post BUMP!

"Why was the death penalty taken off the table?"

Mexico refuses to extradite any of their citizens if they face the death penalty. It took four long years and constant lobbying of Congress and President Bush to get the deal that got him extradited for trial.

Thanks for posting. HOORAY Lloyd Billingsley!

Truth be told, there are hundreds, if not thousands of victims of illegal immigrants. But the lame stream media, who is acting as this administrations “MINISTER OF INFORMATION” will never allow the American people know. There have been murder victims in every state, there have been people killed by drunk illegal drivers, there have been rapes of underage females. You name the crime, and illegal immigrants have committed them. The sad part of all of this is that even if they are caught, this administration will release them ASAP. And if they are deported, they will immediately come back to wreak more havoc.

Condolences to you and your family. I hope your nephew is remembered as the hero he is. Thank you for having the courage to speak up and put the story of this one more of many atrocities out there. The voices of the innocent families and friends need to be heard.
