Chicago Alderwoman Under Fire for Blaming Loyola Student in Murder Case
TL;DR
A Chicago alderwoman, Maria Hadden, faced backlash after suggesting Loyola University Chicago student Sheridan Gorman was killed because she was in the ‘wrong place at the wrong time,’ while an illegal Venezuelan migrant, Jose Medina-Medina, is charged with the murder. Police say Medina-Medina stalked Gorman before shooting her near campus; critics argued Hadden was blaming the victim, a controversy intensified by her past Holocaust-ICE remarks.
