Chicago Alderwoman Maria Hadden, a Democrat, is facing public backlash after suggesting that an 18-year-old college student — who was reportedly shot by an illegal alien — “was in the wrong place at the wrong time” and likely “startled” the killer.
A clip of Hadden addressing the shooting was posted to the social media website X, in which she said, “They go out on the pier, they walk around. The kids were out doing normal things people do in the neighborhood, and it sounds like this might have been a wrong place, wrong time. Running into a person who had a gun.”
“They might have startled this person at the end of the pier unintentionally,” she added.
