The family of Sheridan Gorman, an 18-year-old Loyola University Chicago freshman, is demanding justice after her accused killer, Jose Medina, was found with a makeshift weapon in Cook County Jail. Gorman was shot dead on March 19 while fleeing from Medina, who is an illegal migrant from Venezuela. The weapon, a six-inch shank, was discovered during a search prompted by concerns from other inmates about their safety. Gorman's father, Thomas Gorman, expressed outrage over the legal system's handling of Medina, who has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder and other charges. He criticized the immigration policies that allowed Medina to remain in the U.S., calling them 'broken.' Medina's defense argues that he suffers from developmental disabilities due to a past gunshot wound. The case has attracted significant media attention, including remarks from former President Donald Trump, who blamed the current administration's immigration policies for the tragedy.
