Kate Steinle was killed in what appeared to be a random act of violence last week. Her killer, Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez, a 45-year-old illegal alien, had been deported five times to Mexico. Sanchez was being held by San Francisco authorities, but was released due to the city’s “sanctuary” law, which argues that illegals should not be kept in jail because it violates their constitutional rights. After his release, Sanchez shot Steinle in the chest as she was walking along Pier 14, a busy San Francisco tourist destination. On today’s program Stephen Flurry takes a look at the shooting in San Francisco and analyzes the dangerous policies that allowed this man to be set free.
