Washington (CNN) - President Donald Trump, who often brought up the death of Kate Steinle during his campaign, tweeted Thursday night that the acquittal of the undocumented immigrant who shot her was a "disgraceful verdict."
"No wonder the people of our Country are so angry with Illegal Immigration," the President tweeted hours after a jury acquitted Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, who had been deported five times before the killing of Steinle in 2015.

Trump often cited Steinle's death on a San Francisco pier during his presidential run as an example of the dangers of sanctuary cities.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions condemned San Francisco's sanctuary city policy in the wake of a not-guilty verdict.
Sessions has been critical of sanctuary cities during his tenure as attorney general, and several cities have pursed legal action against the Department of Justice in response.

No amnesty for any illegal alien, ever.
I saw them walking out after the verdict.
Every one of them was fat, ugly, stupid and clueless looking.
They all waddled when they walked.
Probably a hundred IQ points between them, total.
CUT OFF ALL FEDERAL FUNDING TO “SANCTUARY CITIES”.
The legal term in our IMMIGRATION laws is
ILLEGAL ALIEN
someone from another country is called an ALIEN
there are REGISTERED ALIENS (with a “green card”)
and ILLEGAL ALIENS...here illegally...w2ithout prior permission from the US government..
as an IMMIGRANT I was a REGISTERED ALIEN with a “green card”
the proper name of that “card” is a ALIEN REGISTERATION card...it has a number which follows the IMMIGRANT throughout their life...it is placed on the Naturalization document when the IMMIGRANT becomes an American citizen...the “green card” is surrendered at that time...its the property of the US government and the number is protected...
just for you I have my naturalization paper out and here so I can make sure I am accurate...
the number which was on my “green card” is now annotated in the top right hand corner of my naturalization document underneath the new naturalization number...
“Alien Registration No.1234567890”
the new document has its own number but that green card number is important...
ILLEGAL ALIENS do not have that vital legal number...
so just for this 45 years here IMMIGRANT how about thinking of them as ILLEGAL ALIENS whatever else you wish to add...
I’m am IMMIGRANT ...I IMMIGRATED...
Illegal aliens don’t bother to IMMIGRATE..
You’re right. It’s silly and selfish and would never ever work.
And yet because California is so important for many reasons, others have a free ride on it. It’s like we’re being dared to take it away from them.
That won’t happen forcibly as far as mere lefties are concerned, but the Feds do have room to stand on the Constitution here. California doesn’t have to WANT to be guarded from invaders for the Federal government to have the right to do that anyhow.
If I had to trade resources? I’d gladly drop the war on drugs to pay for a war on invaders. If all states want to join Colorado a mile high, let them. But let it all be citizens or authorized guests who are doing it. Rehab (and spiritual forfending) would quickly get very, very serious.
Oh, we might even have some sort of circumscribed amnesty, where circumscribed is the key. You don’t step up for it, or you weren’t on very good behavior, you are placed on the figurative trebuchet out of here.
Are we sure he really tried? Or did he take a dive for his political masters?
It is a mess. “They the people” got what they wanted.
I don’t know if a Federal prosecution would be possible.
That’s what I started to wonder.
Being deported five times before this; or being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm.
Were you in the courtroom? Did you hear the testimony?

Trumps didn’t use the term “immigrant” he spoke of the process of illegal immigration. Illegal aliens got here by immigration not alienation.
Illegal aliens got here by immigration
____________________________________________
No they didn’t...
No illegal alien uses IMMIGRATION to get here...
Illegal aliens don’t IMMIGRATE..
If they bothered to IMMIGRATE they would be IMMIGRANTS...
Since they don’t IMMIGRATE, they are illegal aliens...
Only IMMIGRANTS use IMMIGRATION to get here...
President Trump shouldn’t use the term immigration, even “illegal immigration”
what the illegal aliens do to get here has nothing to do with IMMIGRATION..
You either IMMIGRATE or you don’t...
IMMIGRATION is a process that involves asking permission of the United States government to enter our country and being granted permission prior to coming here...
Illegal aliens don’t give that civil activity a thought...
Having no respect for our sovereign IMMIGRATION laws they just sneak in...
But they don’t IMMIGRATE...
There wasn't much dispute about the facts in this case. The defense admitted to the killing of Kate Steinle and claimed it was an accident.
I found this definition of an accidental homicide in California:
2.2. The killing was an accident
If.at the time you kill someone.you had no criminal intent to do harm, were not acting negligently, and were otherwise engaged in lawful activity at the time of the killing,
So, as far as I can see there is no way to reasonably find that this killing was an accident. By definition, this guy was guilty of some type of criminal homicide (not 1st degree murder, though).
I am no expert on California law by any stretch of the imagination, but I think a reasonable person would have to believe that the jury ruled incorrectly. I can understand that you are comfortable with some amount of jury nullification because you think the alternative would be worse, but that's no reason to attack a poster for saying, "These jurors must be on drugs."
If I had shot and killed Kate, I would be guilty of some form of homicide. It would not be self defense. At the very least I’d be guilty of someone’s death for negligently discharging a weapon. And, if I broke laws to have possession of that gun in public, there would be additional charges. I would not go Scott free.
This jury consists of 12+ regional representatives. With voir dire the tampering is complete. I’ve sat on many Californian juries - firearms ignorance multiplied. If such a jury wants to impose its will, it will. Disgusting.

I guess you missed that adjective “illegal” that Trump put in front of the noun “immigration”. He was correct and you are wrong to say he wasn’t.
kid, again...
illegal aliens do not IMMIGRATE...
this has nothing to do with IMMIGRATION
I know what I know...
Sincerely,
Tennessee Nana
IMMIGRANT

No, which is why I am not willing to condemn the jurors.
