Loyola’s Student Newspaper Issues Apology over Sheridan Gorman Story — for Correctly Calling Alleged Killer an ‘Illegal Immigrant’

  • Loyola University Chicago's student newspaper, The Loyola Phoenix, initially described the accused murderer of Sheridan Gorman as an 'illegal immigrant' but later apologized and changed the description to 'Rogers Park Resident' to align with Associated Press style and avoid harm to community members.
  • Jose Medina-Medina, a 25-year-old Venezuelan national, is accused of murdering 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman and was identified as living in the U.S. illegally, having been released twice by U.S. authorities in 2023 under the Biden administration.
  • The Loyola Phoenix stated that using the term 'illegal immigrant' does not align with its values or AP style, emphasizing that 'no human’s existence is illegal,' and expressed regret for causing harm to affected community members.
