Arrest warrant issued for undocumented immigrant acquitted in Kate Steinle killing
By Max Greenwood - 12/01/17 04:18 PM EST

A federal warrant has been issued for the arrest of a Mexican immigrant acquitted Thursday evening of murder charges in the 2015 killing of Kate Steinle.

Steinle's death has been taken up by opponents of so-called sanctuary cities. They argue that stricter immigration enforcement would have kept Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, who is residing in the U.S. illegally and was deported five separate times before the 2015 shooting, off the streets.

The arrest warrant unsealed in the Western District of Texas by the Justice Department on Friday accuses Zarate of violating his supervised release.

In a statement issued shortly after the verdict was rendered on Thursday, Tom Homan, the deputy director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, said the agency would “work to take custody of Mr. Garcia Zarate and ultimately remove him from the country."

Not so fast their Buckwheat.  He has a date with Federal Justice.

Not-so-fearless prediction, but a prediction in any case:

Watch San Francisco and California officials -- INCLUDING police department personnel -- try to assist Garcia Zarate in evading the federal authorities.

Gonna be interesting!

If they do, new arrest warrants should be drawn up against those aiding and abetting, including police chiefs, mayors or whoever,.
