Sheridan Gorman's Parents Urge End to Sanctuary Policies at Trump Rally After 18-Year-Old's Killing
8 articles · Updated · Fox News · May 22
Jessica and Tom Gorman appeared with Donald Trump at a New York rally, saying their 18-year-old daughter's death showed sanctuary and release policies had failed.
Jose Medina, 25, an undocumented immigrant from Venezuela, was charged with first-degree murder after Sheridan Gorman was shot dead in Chicago on March 19; he has pleaded not guilty.
DHS said Medina had been released twice despite enforcement opportunities — first after a 2023 Border Patrol apprehension and later after a shoplifting arrest tied to an ICE detainer.
The family also renewed criticism of Chicago leaders, saying Mayor Brandon Johnson's unveiling of a snowplow named "Abolish ICE" days after the killing deepened their anger.
Tom Gorman framed the issue as bipartisan public safety, arguing that protecting Americans should not be "a fight that belongs to only one party."
