Relatives of the woman shot to death on a San Francisco pier last year filed a lawsuit Friday saying the illegal immigrant accused in the killing should have been in custody if not for a series of mistakes by city and federal workers.
The killing of Kate Steinle in July 2015 and the arrest of Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez put San Francisco's leaders on the defensive as critics and outside politicians called for a change in the city's sanctuary law. Despite national outrage, San Francisco's Board of Supervisors on Tuesday upheld those protections for people in the country illegally.
The sheriff at the time of the killing, Ross Mirkarimi, is named in the lawsuit, along with ICE and the Bureau of Land Management. Mirkarimi previously defended the release of the suspect, a repeat drug offender and habitual border-crosser.

These kinds of horrendous crimes by illegals is why Trump is so popular.
I hope her family wins big.
Tort Reform Now!
“if not for a series of mistakes by city and federal workers.”
Lying media. It was official policy, and still is. I join you in hoping this family bleeds the city dry.
Make those responsible pay - personally.
And pray Trump wins, so he can cut off ALL fed money to sanctuary cities.
“Tort Reform Now!”
This is one case where I hope they sue San Francisco back to the stone ages.
I think the whole governmental structure in California should be included in the suit. They have aided and abetted the criminal illegal aliens just as much as the Federal entities named.
A very very difficult suit to win. The city may settle but it would more likely not since it would set a terrible (for the city) precedent. The settlement would be in the millions, the legal costs would be in the six figures.
It wasn’t a foreseeable outcome. Like it or not, that’s how a judge will most likely rule.
TITLE 18 - CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE
PART I - CRIMES
CHAPTER 13 - CIVIL RIGHTS
Sec. 241. Conspiracy against rights
-STATUTE-
If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same;
or
If two or more persons go in disguise on the highway, or on the premises of another, with intent to prevent or hinder his free
exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege so secured -
They shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, they shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.
And of course there is always a RICO Case also. Maybe President Trump could get his Attorney General to CRIMINALLY PROSECUTE ALL OF THEM for Sanctuary City ordinances.
Yes, I lived in SF at the time and that was pretty much the report after the investigation, a ricochet and a real tragedy but none-the-less I think the City should be held liable for letting the guy loose.

Bankrupt San Fran, then work on bankrupting ALL Sanctuary Cities!
The, ‘People’s Republik of Madistan’ is a ticking time bomb as far as something like this is concerned.
He was a felon in possession of a firearm, a crime. While committing that crime, he caused the death of another person. In some jurisdictions that would make it murder. I don’t know if California does it that way.
I propose a federal law which makes all sanctuary cities, counties and states strictly liable in tort for all death, injury and property damage caused by illegal immigrants.
Me too.
I don’t know if California does it that way.....No idea. I guess my point was did he intentionally point the weapon and discharge it to cause her harm? I’ve heard that was not the case. As I say, I’m not sticking up for him, but cold blooded murder seems to be different category. Whatever. Put the ILLEGAL ALIEN away. For good.
If the ILLEGAL wasn’t there, she would still be alive (whether they can it accidental or not).
DHS' JEH JOHNSON CLAIMS SUCCESS IN STEMMING BORDER HORDES
"Illegal immigration across the SW border is on pace for the lowest year since 1972."
Johnson claimed success a year after the surge of illegals exposed major
holes in US policy. (washingtontimes.com)
==============================================
So where's all the DHS Billions Johnson requested (1) for border security, and, (2) for "administering" laws that would have protected Kate Steinle from violent illegals?

Homeland Security seeks $41.2 billion budget for 2016
February 4, 2015 6:30 AM By BioPrepWatch Reports
Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson announced a $41.2 billion budget request Monday for the 2016 fiscal year.
The budget would improve the unity of effort at the department, Johnson said, focusing on “harmonizing DHS business processes.” Along with the budget, a new Common Appropriations Structure was also submitted to Congress, which would standardize financial planning, programming and budgets for all DH agencies, Johnson said.
There are five areas the department focuses on each year, and the budget is in alignment with those five missions, Johnson said.
<><> The first mission is to prevent terrorism and enhance security in the country by implementing security for the land, air and at sea.
<><> The next mission is to secure and manage the country’s borders, and reduce the number of illegal immigrants and amount of contraband getting into the United States.
<><> The third mission includes enforcing and administering immigration laws and providing safe and secure detention of illegal immigrants in federal custody if they are a flight risk or a public safety concern.
<><> The fourth mission deals with safeguarding and securing cyberspace, which impacts economic security. The 2016 budget would invest in technology and staff to reduce cybercrime and improve the security of federal network defenses.
<><> The fifth mission, Johnson said, is to strengthen national preparedness and resilience so the country can prepare and respond to any type of disaster. <> Johnson said before Congress approves any funding for the next fiscal year lawmakers should approve funding for the current year.
“The President’s FY 2016 Budget provides the resources necessary for the Department of Homeland Security to further strengthen our efforts to fulfill our wide-ranging missions, while also being agile and vigilant in the face of ever-evolving threats and recent world events,” Johnson said. “But prior to acting on the FY 2016 Budget, I urge Congress to fully fund DHS for the rest of this fiscal year, as the current continuing resolution is disruptive, creates uncertainty, and impedes efficient resource planning and execution.”
