Illegal Alien Acquitted of Murdering Kate Steinle Sues Feds for ‘Vindictive Prosecution’

Jose Inez Garcia-Zarate, the illegal alien acquitted last year of murdering 32-year-old Kate Steinle in July 2015, has sued the federal government, demanding that it produce documents “pertaining to vindictive prosecution and collusion” with the state government in its prosecution against him.

In November, a San Francisco jury found Garcia-Zarate not guilty of murdering Steinle, agreeing that although he had the gun from which the fatal shot was fired, the discharge could have been accidental.


The jury did convict Garcia-Zarate of felony possession of a weapon. He had seven previous felony convictions and had been deported five times before finding “sanctuary” on the streets of San Francisco, a noted “sanctuary city.”

The federal government immediately issued a warrant for Garcia-Zarate’s arrest for violating the terms of his 2015 federal prison release. It then charged him with federal crimes — “for being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition, and for being an illegally present alien in possession of a firearm and ammunition.”

As reported by CourthouseNews.com, Garcia-Zarate is alleging “that federal agencies colluded with the San Francisco police, district attorney’s office and sheriff’s office” and that he is being subjected to double jeopardy — being tried for the same crime twice.

In the motion, filed Tuesday, Garcia-Zarate’s attorney complains: “Almost immediately after the death of Ms. Steinle, then presidential candidate Donald Trump began to use Mr. Garcia-Zarate as the symbol of the dangers of illegal immigrants and the need for a wall between the United States and Mexico.” The attorney also cites several tweets by President Donald Trump as proof that his client is being subjected to unfair treatment.

A disgraceful verdict in the Kate Steinle case! No wonder the people of our Country are so angry with Illegal Immigration.

The federal charges that follows, the attorney argues, violate Garcia-Zarate’s rights to due process: “Though broken up into two counts, these allegations address the exact same conduct as that for which he was convicted in San Francisco.”

To prove his case of “vindictive prosecution” and collusion between state and federal law enforcement, Garcia-Zarate is demanding all records of communication between federal, state, and local law enforcement about the case.

Ironically, California is currently battling the federal government over state laws that restrict cooperation and communication between state and local government with federal immigration officials.

Lawyers are a despicable lot - sell their souls for $$$$$. Tips the balance on the scales of justice.

Has this guy been deported yet? I know they were going to deport him, articles floated about that as well as issuing warrants for the arrest to deport him, but don't know or remember if he ever was actually deported. Anyone know for sure?

That's not "unfair treatment".

Unbelievable: Kate Steinle's killer launches new battle to sue America and stay in the U.S.

After firing a stolen gun and killing Kate Steinle on the San Francisco waterfront in 2015, and then getting away with it in front of a leftwing jury which signaled motivation to strike back at President Trump, do you think Jose Ines Garcia-Zarate, is going away quietly? Do you think the five-times-deported illegal alien drug dealer and transient, with a record of seven felonies, will just allow himself to be deported, and then come back as he always does?

Nope, not the case. He's apparently gotten a pile of leftwing-lawyer backing to sue the federal government over his 'vindictive prosecution.'

According to Breitbart News:

Jose Inez Garcia-Zarate, the illegal alien acquitted last year of murdering 32-year-old Kate Steinle in July 2015, has sued the federal government, demanding that it produce documents “pertaining to vindictive prosecution and collusion” with the state government in its prosecution against him.

Seems that if you are that one-in-a-million thug with just the correct optics for the left, and manage to avoid getting convicted on an open-and-shut case, then any effort to bring justice to the victim of your crime is just ... vindictive prosecution from the feds.

Illegals after, all, should all be free to come here, get sanctuary, and then fire any gun they like no matter which gringo it kills, right? That is the logic.

What this shows is something appalling going on. The subliterate, non-English-speaking, multiple-criminal-conviction, zero-value illegal isn't doing this on his own. He's got backing and sponsorship now, from leftwing lawyer Tony Serra, famous for getting Huey Newton off the hook and defending the Symbionese Liberation Army. His new object of defense, Garcia-Zarate, who has no employable skills other than drug dealing and no right to work here, must be getting considerable support, not just legal advice, but enough cash so that his every need is now met. He's the far-left's poster boy for challenging the federal government, whose prosecution took place during the Obama years in a blue sanctuary city. The leftwing lawyers want to undermine even that.

Unbelievable.

Obviously, the larger forces sponsoring this utterly worthless person see a big moneypot worth harvesting from the taxpayers and are fully confident a leftwing judge and maybe a leftwing jury will break it open wide for both themselves and this illegal.

As for Garcia-Zarate, if that is his real name, he is likely doing this not just for free money, (for it's very difficult to picture handing a taxpayer jackpot to this human garbage, though it may happen), but also to stay in the country for the duration of his lawsuit. We all know the five-time-deported illegal thinks it's his right to be here. If he can get it legally, and force himself among us to live as an equal, even after all his seven felonies, why not?

Yet the fact remains: He's an illegal. He doesn't belong here. And he shouldn't have the right to access our justice system to meet his every need, drain our public coffers, and throw it all in our faces.

It just goes to show the hostility of the left and the great need for reform in the legal system. If he can't be jailed, why can't this sorry excuse for a human being just be thrown out?
