Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, the man found not guilty of murdering Kate Steinle, had been in a San Francisco jail before her killing but was released despite a federal request that he be held for his sixth deportation.
That’s right — his sixth deportation.
But now that he’s been found guilty of possessing a firearm illegally, Zarate might be sent back to Mexico after all.
BREAKING: U.S. immigration officials say they will deport Mexican man found not guilty of murder in San Francisco pier shooting.

Dana Loesch asks the obvious question:
And if he re-enters illegally … ? https://t.co/2tiK1KDYLQ

He will get free health care. https://t.co/TiHxQqNl10

Perhaps a nice settlement for violating his human rights. https://t.co/F10sbrGcVP

Nothing will happen, and he will probably commit crimes against the US again.. Because there IS NO DETERRENT.. Only people supporting garbage people like this.. https://t.co/OQCv2FnCil

This really worked well the first 5 times he was deported before senselessly murdering an innocent and bright 32-year-old.
This is not justice for #KateSteinle

Hmm, will ICE get a notification of his scheduled release, or will sheriff escort him out the front door after telling ICE to wait at the back door? https://t.co/JpjFuVoVAC

Wow, commit murder in a foreign country and get an all expense paid trip home.#WhiteGenocide #KateSteinle https://t.co/OVnHc1vdHj

Sad that the punishment for his crime, deportation, is considered worse than our 3 hots and a cot. https://t.co/GyMKcHDX5S

How about for this 6th time, deport him to a place where he won't have the ability to come back so damn easily and so he can't take anymore lives? https://t.co/tRyLldbt7S

Hopefully they deport him from a moving vehicle. Preferably at a high rate of speed. https://t.co/y0SjVAILRf

Send him to live with Obama in his $8 million crib. The one with the gates, walls and 24/7 security. https://t.co/5CaS1Cl1ob

If I have ever seen a reason to aggressively end #sanctuarycity it is because of #KateSteinle. How a officials can choose to ignore the law, even to the detriment of its own citizens, is beyond me. In the end, the innocent suffer. #NoJusticeForKateSteinle #nojusticeforkate https://t.co/pIiRvkKVR8

Getting conflicting signals from DOJ and DHS tonight about the failed prosecution of the man who killed Kate Steinle. DOJ says it may pursue federal charges. DHS says it will deport him.

The Justice Department might pursue federal charges.
