Biden administration officials allowed the illegal alien accused of murdering college student Sheridan Gorman free despite fears he would “abscond,” House Judiciary Committee Republicans said.
Chicago police announced March 22 that Jose Medina-Medina had been arrested for the murder of Gorman, a freshman at Loyola University who was shot while walking in a city park. In a Tuesday post on X, committee Republicans posted screenshots of documents indicating that the Biden administration knew Medina-Medina had no identification, lacked a valid U.S. address, had no confirmed point of contact and was “likely to abscond” before releasing him.

“Democrats knew this man was dangerous and had no legitimate asylum claim. But they still released him,” Committee Republicans said in the post that contained screenshots.
“The criminal alien who killed college student Sheridan Gorman: Apprehended at the border by the Biden Administration in 2023; Released two weeks later; Noted by officials as ‘likely to abscond’ and had no verifiable contact information,” Judiciary Committee Republicans said in a post featuring a photo of Medina-Medina made shortly before they posted the document screenshots.
Medina-Medina had been apprehended by Border Patrol agents in 2023, but was released, according to a March post on X by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
“Venezuelan national Jose Medina-Medina was apprehended by Border Patrol in May of 2023 and released into the country under the Biden admin,” ICE said in the post. “He was then released again on June of 2023 following an arrest for shoplifting in Chicago.”
According to the screenshots of the documents released by Judiciary Committee Republicans, Medina-Media claimed that he was planning to reside in New Rochelle, New York, a suburb of New York City.
