How many more times will this have to happen before Democrats stop defending and sheltering criminals?
In the latest outrage, one Sheridan Gorman, a 19-year-old student from New York who was attending Chicago’s Loyola University, was shot to death near the Loyola campus last Thursday, and now an illegal alien from Venezuela has been arrested for her senseless, unprovoked murder.
A Venezuelan migrant was arrested in connection with the execution-style murder of a New York teen on a night stroll with friends near Loyola University Chicago’s campus on Thursday, according to reports.
The 25-year-old man, who hasn’t been officially charged, is accused of approaching 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman, of Yorktown Heights, NY, at the Loyola Beach Pier before firing the fatal shot from behind.
The unidentified suspect was wearing black clothes and a black mask when he allegedly killed the first-year Loyola University Chicago student at around 1:30 a.m., the Chicago Tribune reported.
A bystander witnessed the gunman fire a single shot at Gorman before she could run away.
Let’s get one thing straight right off: This goblin is not a “migrant.” He’s a criminal. While his immigration status has not yet been released, Sheridan’s unprovoked murder seems to fit a pattern we’ve seen before – too many times.
Officials were able to identify the gunman because of a “distinct limp,” the outlet reported.
The man was identified as a migrant from Venezuela, Fox News reported. His legal status and how long he’s been in the US were not immediately known.
The suspect had only one prior arrest in Cook County, a shoplifting misdemeanor from a Macy’s in June 2023, the Chicago Tribune reported.
In Cook County? One wonders if the suspect, who has not yet been named, has any record outside Cook County. It seems unlikely that he sprang from shoplifting to assassinating innocent college kids.

But let’s not focus on the goblin. This is the life he erased for no reason:
Sheridan was pronounced dead at the scene, with a gunshot wound to the back. No other injuries were reported in the shooting.
She was studying business at Loyola University Chicago.
Sheridan’s family said she had gone out with friends in the early hours of Thursday looking for the Northern Lights.
“She was exactly where she should have been — close to campus, surrounded by friends, living her life,” her grieving family shared in a statement obtained by the outlet on Saturday, hours before news of the arrest.
Sheridan was doubtless beloved by her family. And they are correct: Sheridan was precisely where she should have been, enjoying a spring evening with friends. She did nothing to deserve this, but we keep seeing these kinds of crimes, over and over.
Looking at Sheridan’s photo, all I can think is that I have a granddaughter her age, also in college. These kinds of senseless crimes affect all of us, and Democrat policies, on crime, on justice, and on immigration enforcement all enable these kinds of things. Enough is enough.
