The sister of a student allegedly murdered by an illegal immigrant has strongly criticized a group of left-wing activists who held an anti-ICE protest in her Westchester County hometown, saying it felt like “a wound reopened.”
Madelon Gorman, the sister of 18-year-old Loyola University freshman Sheridan Gorman, shared a heartfelt post on Facebook following Saturday’s demonstration in Yorktown.
Sheridan was shot and killed on March 19 while walking near her campus in Chicago. Jose Medina, a 25-year-old Venezuelan migrant, has been charged with her murder.
“My sister left Yorktown to pursue her education in Chicago, where she was tragically murdered by an illegal immigrant with a criminal history. That loss shattered my family,” Madelon wrote on Facebook.
“That is why seeing an anti-ICE protest in the very community that raised us hurts so deeply. It feels like a wound being reopened. It feels as though the tragedy that took my sister’s life is being reduced to a political talking point rather than recognized as the devastating human loss that it is.”
“What makes this especially painful is that there are countless places where people can gather to express their views. Yet this protest took place in the hometown that Sheridan loved, the town that raised her, and the community that mourned her.”
The protest, organized by Indivisible Yorktown and Northern Westchester Indivisible, targeted ICE and U.S. Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY).
State Assemblyman Matt Slater (R-Yorktown) also condemned the demonstration.
“Today’s anti-ICE protest by members of the extreme left in Yorktown — which was really a celebration of Kathy Hochul’s new Sanctuary State laws — was a shocking display of disrespect toward a community and family still in mourning,” Slater wrote on Facebook.
“Sheridan Gorman loved Yorktown and everything it stood for, but she was taken from us by an illegal immigrant and the same broken system Kathy Hochul just approved for all of New York,” he added. “No one should go through the pain the Gorman family has endured, and today’s protest ignored every green light that continues to shine for Sheridan.”
