The Callous, Cheap Political Stunt JB Pritzker Pulled That Could Come Back to Haunt Him

The senseless murder of 18-year-old Loyola University freshman Sheridan Gorman last Thursday has once again cast an unflattering spotlight on so-called sanctuary cities like Chicago and the deadly consequences of shielding criminal illegal immigrants from justice.
 

As RedState reported, Gorman was out with friends early Thursday morning, walking the Chicago lakefront, when the suspect, 25-year-old Jose Medina, allegedly approached them and opened fire as they ran away. There are conflicting reports about where Gorman was shot. Some say she was shot in the head; others say in the back.

Upon learning that Medina was a Joe Biden-era illegal immigrant who shouldn't have been here, the attorney for Gorman's family issued the following statement:

"We are gravely disappointed by the policies and failures that allowed this individual to remain in a position to commit this crime... When systems fail -- whether through release decisions, lack of coordination, or unwillingness to act -- the consequences are not abstract. They are real. And in our case, they are permanent."

The Callous, Cheap Political Stunt JB Pritzker Pulled 

I hope no one thinks he is anything but a callous, cheap, politician who doesn't give a sh*t what people think of him as long as he has power and control.

Here is a take from one of Prickster's biggest allies in Chi-town..  Chicago Alderwoman Maria Hadden.....

"Hadden said the deadly shooting appeared to be a case of Gorman being “in the wrong place at the wrong time, running into a person who had a gun,” in an interview with Fox 32 Chicago."

Trump's fault.

Illinois Gov. Priztker admits 'real failures' as slain Chicago student's hometown pays tribute in lights
Pritzker says the failures extend to the federal level, accusing Trump of not following 'his own edict to go after the worst of the worst.'

Democrat Illinois Governor JB Pritzker said there have been "real failures" by when it comes to immigration, and criticized President Trump for failing to "follow his own edict."

Jose Medina, 25, was arrested on Friday after he allegedly shot and killed Sheridan Gorman early on Thursday morning at a pier in Chicago. Gorman was with a group of friends when she was killed. Medina, an illegal immigrant from Venezuela, was apprehended by the U.S. Border Patrol on May 9, 2023, and was released into the U.S. under the Biden administration, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

In a new statement, Pritzker seemingly pointed a finger at the Trump administration, according to the Chicago Tribune.

"This has been a terrible tragedy, and I know that the Gorman family has suffered mightily…There have been real failures. Those failures, of course, extend beyond the borders of Illinois. That’s their national failures, a failure to have comprehensive immigration reform, a failure of the president to follow his own edict to go after the worst of the worst," Pritzker said Tuesday.

Pritzker made the comments as homes in Yorktown Heights, New York, where Gorman is from, were lit up in green on Tuesday night in honor of the slain Loyola University Chicago student. Green is one of Yorktown's school colors, according to CBS News.
