A California federal judge on Monday sentenced the Mexican man acquitted of murder in the 2015 shooting death of Kate Steinle on a San Francisco pier to the seven years he's already spent in jail.
SAN FRANCISCO -- A California federal judge on Monday sentenced Jose Inez Garcia Zarate -- the Mexican man acquitted of murder in the 2015 shooting death of a woman on a San Francisco pier -- to the seven years he's already spent in jail.
Garcia Zarate admitted firing the gun on July 4, 2015, but said he found it under a bench and didn't know what it was when he picked it up because it was wrapped in a T-shirt. The gun fired accidentally after he picked it up, he said. Officials said the bullet ricocheted off the ground and hit Steinle.
Chhabria also delivered a harsh rebuke of the mental health treatment received by Garcia Zarate for his schizophrenia while in custody, which the judge said was virtually nonexistent. The handgun belonged to a U.S. Bureau of Land Management ranger who reported it stolen from his parked car a week before Steinle was killed.
Garcia Zarate"feels horrible about what happened, and that he's very sorry and apologizes," his lawyer, Mike Hinckley, said in court Monday.
