The man accused of shooting a young woman dead on a popular pier had served 181 months in federal prisons and been deported five times. But San Francisco’s sheriff saw fit to free him.
Back in 2007, the undocumented immigrant now charged with shooting a magical young woman on a San Francisco pier penned a one-page letter to the U.S. District Court in New Mexico.
“The defendant looks forward to going back to his country,” the man wrote in the third person.
Across the top of the letter, the man neatly lettered the words “Motion to Correct Sentence” and “United States V. Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez.” He is listed in this and most of his other court cases by that name and in others as Juan Jose Dominguez-De La Parra. His real name is said by federal authorities to most likely be Jose Inez Garcia Zarate. The authorities are not sure which of the various dates of birth he has provided is accurate.
