S.F., feds liable in Kathryn Steinle killing, parents say
The parents and brother of a woman gunned down on San Francisco’s waterfront in July, allegedly by an immigrant facing deportation, said Tuesday they were ready to go to court to force the city and federal government to take steps to prevent a repeat of the tragedy.
Jim Steinle and his wife, Liz Sullivan, of Livermore joined their son Brad Steinle on the steps of San Francisco City Hall as their attorneys announced they had filed legal claims in advance of expected lawsuits against the city and two federal agencies in the killing of Kathryn Steinle.
The 32-year-old San Francisco woman was walking with her father on Pier 14 when she was shot to death the evening of July 1.
