A federal appeals court has ruled that the parents of Kate Steinle, who was shot and killed in July 2015 by an undocumented immigrant, cannot sue San Francisco for refusing to tell immigration officials of the shooter's release

In a wrongful death lawsuit, Steinle's parents had argued that San Francisco and its former sheriff were partly to blame for their daughter's death, because officials failed to notify Immigration and Customs Enforcement when Jose Ines Garcia Zarate was released from jail. Garcia Zarate, an undocumented immigrant and repeat felon from Mexico who'd been deported five times prior to the shooting, was released from custody in April 2015.

Garcia Zarate was formerly known as Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez, one of several aliases he is known to have used. CNN and other media outlets previously identified him as Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez.

It's called the Cascadia Subduction Zone. When it goes, it's going to be huge. As far as San Fran is concerned, when that falls into the ocean I'm celebrating!!!

🇺🇸 CNN ? This beautiful girl could of been yours ? I hope you will sincerely join POTUS ⭐️as you see he won Emergency funds and so much more . I know I am his Vision Warrior . My God raises him up ! Smile . So call him have a interview with a conservative reporter 🇺🇸

There has to be something besides Twitter comments that citizens can do to stop this insanity! Please don't forget when it's time to vote.

WHY? ANOTHER DEMOCRAT PRIVILEGE. THIS IS WHY THEY WANT POWER AND CONTROL. SAN FRANCISCO NEEDS TO OWN UP ON THIS GIRLS DEATH.

The City of San Francisco has much blood on it's hands. May it receive the evil karma it exudes.

αν θελετε οι των ΗΠΑ,να γλυτωσετε απο τους φονιαδες αλοδαπους:βοηθειστε (για 10,ή καλυτερα(για σας):για 20 χρονια):τον κ.Τραμπ.

The “killer” dropped the pistol and the ricocheted bullet accidentally hit Kate. The man was acquitted. Please don’t perpetuate the lies.

Bs... the city allowed it.. they should pay for it!!

SCOTUS here it comes

BS

Wasn’t he found not guilty ?

Killed someone and doesnt get charged with murder. It was an accident your honor...

Guess what. I’m assuming the 9th. They’ll get overruled again

The 9th circuit court should be broken up ..this like 99% of their ruling will be overturned ..Thank God Trump is putting more federal judges on the bench in history ..

Haha go build the wall

So it's a wise idea to give power to the government when 'state officials are immune from suit'?

They should be able to sue. Officials in SF violated federal law. Because of that their daughter is dead. Someone needs to be held accountable for this and that sanctuary city crap must stop!

Wake up, fellow Whites people. They want us gone. This will only get worse

Seems that a federal court is against the federal government's immigration policy. How can it be that the law is not the law in a court of law?

Just awful. Build it.

Leftists: foreign murderers come before your baby....

CNNSUCKS SanFranciscoIsUSELESS

I hope hope every Democrat loses a child at the hands of an illegal immigrant. Sorry not sorry.

Dem controlled state 'law' for you... Illegals over citizens DrainTheSwamp !

disgusting

Supreme Court. Sue the hell out of San Fran and Pelosi too if u can

Why legal citizens of the United States choose to live in California is beyond me... only non-Citizens have any rights

Bullshit!

Kill him

Pathetic

He also raped her, but that's ok, they should sue the company he was employed with for damages that is why he was here in the USA in the first place

Please. Thank your democrats

Continued screwing of American taxpayers and Angel families by illegals!! 🤬

9th circuit court are a bunch of nazis And will award the immigrant damages for mental anguish.

*Illegal Alien...and, it’s the 9th Circuit. Of course those loons are going to rule in that manner. And, the shooter is an Illegal Alien. Illegal. Alien.

Of course they cannot sue, because in the colony of San Fran, the rights of illegals always trump the rights of citizens. We dont want to upset the illegals, after all we need their votes, the Steinle's are already anti Democrat, so screw them..they arent wanted here.

Illegal illegal illegal come on say it with me. Illegal

Just cut off any and all federal funding those sanctuary cities might be getting. You'll how fast they start following the law. Money talks....

He was deported at least 3 times. Why wasn’t he deported the moment he was released from prison? Why was he only convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm?

Should sue Pelosi too!

That’s awful, they should appeal. You know what they say about California.

A travesty! Never trust Big Government!

Dammit

In that shit tank state - California. So sad.

The truth is never secret

MSM n HouseDemocrats SenateDems Joyous !?! Kate Steinle, represents 000’s murdered n hundreds of 000’s assaults... Thimmk TheDemocrats GOP MSNBC GMA ... Picture UR Daughter or Son carries off in a BODY BAG - Thimmk!!! MorningsMaria MariaBartiromo TuckerCarlson POTUS

Every mutt is sacred

Double murder. First an illegal kills her. Now the federal appeals court.

That’s a total bullshit ruling ....

9th circuit Court, standing up for the civil liberties of no one. 👏✊

That is outrageous. Release a dangerous criminal, aiding in the commission of his next crime, get off scot-free

Another win for lawlessness and illegal immigration. Another win for Democrats and the liberal media.

Appeal the decision to a Higher Court.

Sure hope the family takes this to the US Supreme Court! This is totally ridiculous. The appeals court needs to be stripped of their duties as they can not seem to follow the law

*illegal alien

Isn't it amazing how the States' Rights crowd doesn't like states doing things they don't like, like refuse to be an arm of the federal government.

What Nonsense ...this is Injustice

SpeakerPelosi RepMaxineWaters you are responsible for death of an innocent....

Total BS ! This ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT was deported five times. Had he killed a sea lion he’d be on death row. Keep fighting for justice. justiceforkate BuildTheWall

So sad heard

So a murdering illegal alien has more courses of legal actions than the murdered victim's family? California is a cesspool.

What can you expect from the 9th circus?

Of course they can't. If that was the case Cali would go broke with as many illegals they let live there and protect.

You write that as if it's a victory.. well of course they ruled that, they know they would lose big if the court disnt.. so sorry for your loss parents of Kate Steiinle, we all know the truth about sanctuary cities and the violence in them..

Build the wall!

Just another reason why SF is a shithole.

Illegals can kill citizens in San Francisco and get away with it. That's the liberal Utopia they want for the rest of the country.

Once again...RACIST PIC! But won't show the face of a white boy that slaughtered 50 people!

Disgusting

This will continue happening bc “under California law, the state officials are immune from suit.' There should be an exemption when state officials intentionally & willfully flaunt Federal law...

This is complete bullshit.

Freakin disgusting.

Take it to the Supreme Court. Sanctuary Cities are illegal as they defy Federal Law.

Sorry guys you are fakenews fakenewscnn

Thought the courts found the undocumented immigrant not guilty?

How nice of you to tweet that does that make you happy🤬 u no good fake news American Haters that you are I will not be surprised if you paid for the guys Lawyer😡 how can you guys be so heartless no souls👹 True patriots will never Forget Kate and many others🙏🏻RiP🇺🇸💪🏻

And CNN rejoices for a murder in spits on Kate's grave.

Pretty sad 🤢🤮

Did I read that ruling right? It’s dismissed because by law people can sue state officials in California? What kinda law is that?

Disgraceful but as we have recently seen Karma is wearing Nikes and California is in line for a round of Karma.

It's the ninth circuit appeals court, no surprise there. Now, if they ruled in favor of the parents, that'd be news.

Good

Where did the gun come from?

Undocumented? Illegal!!!!!

Thank you CNN for reporting this. I appreciate your network supports sanctuary cities, no boarder walls, illegals voting and generally just hate the US however reporting on stories like this helps Trump in 2020, so sincerely thank you.

They're wanting the money!

Her killer is in jail. They're just being greedy, now.

This state is an embarrassment. They let a killer walk free and no accountability. Shameful GavinNewsom

Of course, it would be the 9th circus.

The left cares more about unskilled THUGS than AMERICAN citizens. If you are UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANT or have OVERSTAYED YOUR VISA, you should be IMMEDIATELY DEPORTED!!!! BuildTheWall AmericaFirst MAGA2020

Trump, what are you going to do about this treachery?

No wonder California is ranked 50th worst state for quality of life. People are fleeing the state

Here gleefully reports a travesty.

Sanctuary cities, where they will release non citizens fpr DUI because they hate Trump more than the tax paying citizens they are supposed to represent.

Shameful!

...and shit like this is what will get realDonaldTrump re-elected in a landslide never before seen in this country.
