Jose Medina-Medina, a 25-year-old Venezuelan who entered the US illegally in May 2023, has been named by the Department of Homeland Security as the suspect in the fatal shooting of Loyola University Chicago student Sheridan Gorman. The 18-year-old was killed early Thursday morning while walking with friends near campus. Medina-Medina was previously released after crossing the border and had an outstanding warrant for shoplifting.
The family of Sheridan Gorman, an 18-year-old Loyola University Chicago freshman who was fatally shot near the school’s lakefront campus on March 19, has criticized remarks from Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and a statement from Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker’s office as too general, urging officials to give a clearer accounting of what they say went wrong.
