Steinle killer found not guilty of murder in San Francisco

The killer of Kate Steinle has been found not guilty except for a handgun possession charge just now by a San Francisco jury.

The best place to commit a crime? If you are a criminal, it's California. OJ Simpson, Dan White, Robert Blake. And now Jose Ines Garcia Zarate. The jurors couldn't even convict Zarate on involuntary manslaughter even though the bullet that killed Kate Steinle came from the gun he fired. When you accidentally kill someone with your car you are eligible for involuntary manslaughter.

In his first remarks after the verdict was announced, public defender Matt Gonzalez attacked President Donald J. Trump.

Zarate is an illegal alien who has been deported five times.

As with the OJ trial, the decision is clearly based on politics rather than guilty versus not guilty.
