SAN FRANCISCO — Two weeks after Donald Trump descended his gold-plated escalator and announced he was running for president, 32-year-old Kate Steinle was taking photos with her father on Pier 14 when she was shot and killed — allegedly by an undocumented immigrant from Mexico who had been deported five times.
Three months before the July 1, 2015, shooting, the Mexican national had been released from a San Francisco jail rather than deported because of the city’s “sanctuary” policy, which prevented officials from communicating with federal immigration authorities.
