Trump is despicable.
Trump angers Ruby Garcia’s family members, who dispute he spoke to them
The sister of Ruby Garcia, a woman murdered last month in Michigan, said she was shocked to hear former President Trump claim that he spoke with her family when referencing her sister’s killing in remarks about immigration.
“He did not speak with any of us, so it was kind of shocking seeing that he had said that he had spoke with us, and misinforming people on live TV,” Mavi Garcia, the sister of Ruby, told WOOD-TV in Michigan Tuesday.
WOOD-TV is owned by Nexstar Media Group, which also owns The Hill.
Speaking from Grand Rapids, Mich., Tuesday, Trump brought up the killing of Garcia, whom he described as a “beautiful young woman [who] was savagely murdered by an illegal alien criminal,” and vowed justice for her killer.
“Now, Ruby’s loved ones and community are left grieving for this incredible young woman remembering what they called her … they said she had just this most contagious laughter and when she walked into a room, she lit up that room,” he said. “And I’ve heard that from so many people, I spoke to some of her family.”
Mavi said neither Trump nor his campaign reached out to her or anyone else in her immediate family, noting she would have known if he had reached out to her family members, WOOD-TV reported.
“It was shocking. I kind of stopped watching it; I’d only seen up to that, after I heard a couple of misinformation he said, I just stopped watching it,” Mavi told WOOD-TV.
Garcia, 25, was found dead on the side of a highway in Grand Rapids on March 22, Michigan State Police said. Authorities later arrested Brandon Ortiz-Vite, 25, whom they say was in a romantic relationship with Garcia. Mavi pushed back on the police’s assertion about their relationship, claiming the two were friends, WOOD-TV reported.
