FILE - In this Monday, July 6, 2015, file photo, San Francisco Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi fields questions during an interview in San Francisco. Mirkarimi was already fighting for his political life. Then his jail released a Mexican national wanted by federal immigration authorities who wanted to deport the man for the sixth time. The jail’s decision to release Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez, who is charged with randomly shooting to death a young San Francisco woman shortly after his release, has placed Mirkarimi squarely in the center of a national debate over immigration.
