focused on the shooting .... garcia- zarate's undocumented immigration status was not allowed as a factor for consideration by the jury. kron four's maureen kelly explains .. what comes next for garcia- zarate. kate steinle would still be alive if the san francisco sheriff just turned over jose garcia zarate after he was released from san francisco county jail back in 2015..at least that's the position of the deputy director of the us immigration and customs enforcement..who now vows to deport garcia zarate this time around.that news came in a statement released shortly after undocumented immigrant was aquited of killing the 32 year old pleasanton native. the jury found him only guilty of being a felon in possesion of a firearm. he will be sentenced december 14th.but the maximum sentence for that crime is three years, and typically those convicted serve only half that. if you take into consideration that garcia zarate has been locked up for 2 and a half years

already.he has what's called credit for time served so he'd likely be releasedand that will happen on or shortly after decemeber 14th. but now there are reports that that the u.s. attorney general's office is looking at every option to prosecute jose ines garcia zarate "to the fullest extent available under the law."this recently unsealed federal warrant reveals that garcia zarate's crime of being in possesion of a gun is a violation on his probation.so on the day of his release from county jail.garcia zarate will turned over to the us marshalls this time around. public defender jeff adachi says a warrnet was that's all the feds ever needed to get around the santuary city policy..the sanctuary city policy really says that the local government doesn't take responsibility for essentially feeding individuals to ice. they are free to do that on their own and all they need to do is get a warrant. so if there truly concerned about somebody being in the united states that shouldn't be all i have to do is have a warrant is which is what they've done now in the case of mr. garcia zarte and there's nothing san francisco can do about it he will be deportedadachi says there would be a deportation hearing first, but they have yet to consult with their client wheter or not they will fight it. maureen kelly kron4 news kron4 newsmaureen kelly kron4 news

,$8drw says is designed to create jobs and increase pay for the middle class ... president trump continues to push ... cutting corporate tax rates. (steve) now some of the top c-e-o's say, all that money saved will not be effective overnight. cristina (al-less-ski) alesci with our partnership with c-n-n explains where that money will go. just in time for the holidays, the republicans seem poised to deliver a gift to u-s businesses president trump: "it reduces the corporate rate from 35% all the way down to 20%. and it provides a one time low tax rate to return corporate money parked overseas. trillions and trillions of dollars."

republicans say that workers benefit when companies pay less taxit will free up cash to hire employees and expand operationssteve mnuchin:"those are jobs -- that's money we want to bring back. we're going to create expensing that incentivized company to spend capital here and create jobs." but how much will the average american really benefit from corporate tax cuts? will it really trickle down?even executives aren't promising much.the wall street journal asked a group of them if they'd pump more money into their businesses in front of trump's very own economic adviser:reporter:"if the tax reform bill goes through, do you plan to increase your company's investment, your capital investment? just a show of hands. the tax reform measure."gary cohn:"why aren't the other hands up?"a tepid response, considering companies are also getting extra sweeteners - including a reduced rate on trillions parked overseasif they bring that money back home.but ceos of major companies admit that workers won't necessarily see

more jobs or higher wagesat least, not right awayreporter: "what about jobs and wages? does that argument work? is that an focus on, invest in?" james quincey:"i think principally it's not our short term change. it's not like there's a big box of money out there that suddenly comes back and gets reinvested by us in 2018."in fact, studies show the last time there was a similar holiday on foreign profits in 2004, about 60 to 90 cents of every dollar went to stockholders - not investment.bottom line, the tax break was not an effective way to grow the economy, according to the congressional research service.and experts don't think it will be different this time around. jennifer blouin:"how much of that 3 trillion dollars is likely to come back to be used to hire folks, invest in research and development, build new plant facilities and manufacturing? i would suspect it's fairly low."but the fervor for big corporate tax cuts is helping fuel a so- called santa claus rally in the stock market. and you know that's making president trump happy .
