Parents of slain Loyola student Sheridan Gorman call for accountability: "We've got to make changes"

  • Sheridan Gorman, an 18-year-old freshman at Loyola University, was fatally shot on March 19, 2026, near the Chicago lakefront while with friends seeking the northern lights.
  • Jose Medina-Medina, a 25-year-old Venezuelan national who illegally entered the United States in 2023 under a catch-and-release policy, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and other offenses in connection with Gorman's death.
  • Gorman's parents criticized sanctuary policies and the Biden administration for allowing Medina-Medina to remain free after prior offenses, calling for better cooperation among federal, state, and local authorities to prevent such tragedies.
  • Medina-Medina's defense cited developmental delays due to a childhood brain injury, while Gorman's parents vowed to seek justice and advocate for policy changes to enhance public safety.
