The undocumented Mexican immigrant acquitted of murder and manslaughter in the controversial death of 32-year-old Kate Steinle is due back in San Francisco Superior Court this week for a sentencing hearing.

Judge Samuel K. Feng is scheduled to sentence 45-year-old Jose Ines Garcia Zarate on Friday for the only conviction jurors returned against the defendant for being a felon in possession of a firearm.

Defense attorney Matt Gonzalez said after trial that the maximum sentence for being a felon in possession of a firearm is less than the time Garcia Zarate has already served in County Jail since the shooting.


There is a new sheriff in town both in San Francisco and back in Washington D.C. Zarate ain't going to be free anytime soon and he will never be set free on this side of the border.

He is not an undocumented immigrant. He is an ILLEGAL alien.

Strange to be convicted of possessing a firearm but not for the ability to shoot it (murder, manslaughter, etc.)

Execution at the scene of the crime would have been a service to humanity....

I imagine the judge will impose the lightest sentence permitted and throw some welfare $$ at the scumbag.

He may get a slap on the hand, but they’ll do it with a feather so it won’t seem mean or something.

He has no documents since he is an illegal, why is this hard for the fringe ,ultra left wing to comprehend?
They use their words on their agenda to butter up their agenda, but in the end it is still the commie agenda they push.

He has a gun, the gun matches that what was used in the killing, his fingerprints are all over the gun, plus the rounds, and yet he is not found guilty!!!!!!!

“...come on Sessions where are you again?...”

Hiding under his political desk, as usual. He appears to be much more interested in getting back to the political mainstream rather than supporting DJT’s agenda which includes the rule of law.

"What am I missing here?"

His defense was, essentially, that he did not intend" to shoot Ms. Steinle. In democrat circles this is all that you need to claim to be, "not guilty".

He shot it on a down angle it hit the concrete and Ricocheted into the young lady. It’s in the forensics. So it’s not murder 1. But the dip wads in the Frisco jury wouldn’t give him murder 2 or manslaughter either. Total waste of air, the Bay Area.

Even if he did not have the intent, he was guilty of manslaughter or at least negligent homicide both of which are essentially murder without intent or accidental murder.

Come on, he just mishandled something he should have kept secure. No big deal. I’m surprised a prosecutor took this to trial.
