Chicago alderwoman suggests Loyola student who was shot dead may have ‘startled’ her killer

By Jonah Adams

An 18-year-old Loyola University Chicago student was shot dead Thursday morning while she walked with friends along the city’s lakefront near campus. An illegal Venezuelan migrant, 25-year-old Jose Medina-Medina, was arrested and charged with the killing. And a progressive Chicago Democrat’s first instinct was to suggest the victim brought it on herself.

Chicago Alderwoman Maria Hadden, speaking after the murder of Sheridan Gorman, offered this as her explanation:

“They might have unintentionally startled this person at the end of the pier.”

Gorman, an 18-year-old from Yorktown, New York, was walking with friends. She was a college freshman doing what college freshmen do. She is now dead, and her elected representative floated the theory that she and her friends spooked an armed illegal immigrant into killing her.

The alderwoman’s full performance

Hadden didn’t stop at the “startled” remark. She characterized the entire murder as Gorman being “in the wrong place at the wrong time, running into a person who had a gun,” the Post reported. She then assured the public: “We don’t believe there is cause for broader community concern.”

No broader community concern. A teenage girl was gunned down on a lakefront path near her university by a man who, according to police reports, stalked her from behind for some time before shooting her at point-blank range and fleeing. And the message from her alderwoman is: nothing to see here.
