San Francisco Murder Fires Up Immigration Debate
UNIDENTIFIED MALE (voice-over): Jane Weldon has been hosting the game at her Wimbledon home for seven years.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: It's a 5-minute walk to the all England club. You can see the courts and hear the roar from center and number one courts.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Apartments with SW-19 post code start at $2,200 a week and family homes top out at $23,000. Players are willing to pay big for the convenience of walking to work.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: So just something really nice about Wimbledon. It makes you feel you can have a normal life.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Roger Federer requires two houses when he comes to Wimbledon to accommodate his growing family. He is looked after by Joanna (inaudible) who finds private homes for most of the top players.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: They are quite superstitious quite a lot of players, I think. I mean, I can never get a player to go and live in a house that's number 13, for example.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Wimbledon business owners know the value of privacy. If they can keep their clients happy, they'll be returning for years to come.</s>WHITFIELD: New details about captured inmate and convicted killer, David Sweat. He's now behind bars at a different maximum security prison and on suicide watch. Sweat is being held at the Five Points Correctional Facility in New York, which is about a five-hour drive from the Clinton Correctional Facility where he broke out. He will be housed in a single cell within the facility's 23-hour confinement unit. Sweat and fellow escapee, Richard Matt, led authorities on a three-week manhunt after they escaped last month. An undocumented immigrant is the prime suspect in what appears to be a random shooting of a woman in San Francisco and that is stirring up tensions in the immigration debate. Would Kate Steinle (ph) still be alive if the suspect, a repeat felon, wasn't allowed in the U.S.? Our Boris Sanchez joins us now from New York. Boris, how is the family taking this news?</s>BORIS SANCHEZ, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Very difficult for them as you can imagine, Fredricka. This appears to be a random senseless murder. Officials wanted this man detained on a prior arrest. He was let go leading many to wonder if this whole thing could have been avoided.</s>SANCHEZ (voice-over): Walking with his daughter, Kate, on a busy San Francisco pier Wednesday night, Jim Steinle heard a loud pop ring out.</s>JIM STEINLE, VICTIM'S FATHER: This was evil. Evil personified.</s>SANCHEZ: Kate fell to the ground hit by a bullet. The shooter running off without saying a word.</s>SGT. MIKE ANDRAYCHAK, SAN FRANCISCO POLICE: There does not appear to be any connection between the victim and the suspect. At this point, it appears to be a random shooting incident.</s>SANCHEZ: The suspect, 45-year-old, Juan Francisco Lopez Sanchez, an undocumented immigrant and repeat felon. According to immigration officials, Lopez Sanchez has been deported five times to Mexico. In March, he was released from federal prison after serving time for sneaking back into the U.S. Federal law enforcement sources tell CNN it would have been six deportations except authorities in San Francisco wanted him on a drug related warrant so U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement turned him over to deputies. ICE officials say they requested an immigration detainer that would give them a heads-up before he was released, but the sheriff's department denied the request according to policy before letting him go. The chief attorney telling CNN there was no legal cause to detain him. Lopez Sanchez now faces homicide charges.</s>STEINLE: It's not going to bring Kate back. Again, finding the guy and whatever, the justice will work its way through the system, but our focus is on Kate.</s>SANCHEZ: Officials in San Francisco say there was no warrant or judicial order of removal for him so legally they had no cause to hold him -- Fredricka.</s>WHITFIELD: All right, Boris Sanchez, thank you so much. We'll have much more in the NEWSROOM after this.
