Summary
Jessica Gorman said Democratic lawmakers mocked or dismissed her testimony about the March 2026 killing of her 18-year-old daughter Sheridan, using a Washington event to denounce sanctuary-city policies.
Sheridan Gorman, a Loyola University Chicago student, was shot near a Chicago pier and lighthouse; Jose Medina, a Venezuelan national in the U.S. illegally, was charged after previously being released following a shoplifting arrest in Chicago.
Gorman singled out Rep. Pramila Jayapal for saying lawmakers had "many other things we could be doing" during the House hearing, and accused Rep. Jerry Nadler of sleeping through parts of the proceedings.
The event, attended by Attorney General Todd Blanche and border czar Tom Homan, also featured Stephen Federico, who said his daughter Logan was killed by a U.S. career criminal arrested 39 times, widening the criticism to broader justice-system failures.
