The family of Ruby Garcia, the young woman in Michigan who was murdered by an illegal, says that neither Trump nor his campaign reached out to her family even though Trump said so during his speech yesterday.

Here’s the report from Wood TV:

The sister of murder victim Ruby Garcia said she and her family were home watching live, in disbelief, as former President Donald Trump told an audience in Grand Rapids that he had spoken with “some of her family.”

“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,” Ruby Garcia’s sister, Mavi Garcia, told Target 8.

Mavi Garcia, the family spokesperson, said neither Trump nor anybody from his campaign has contacted her or anybody in her immediate family. She said her family is close and she would know if that had happened.

“It was shocking. I kind of stopped watching it. I’d only seen up to that, after I heard a couple of misinformations he said, I just stopped watching it,” Mavi Garcia said.

Trump spent some of his speech on Tuesday focusing on immigration, turning to the March 22 murder of 25-year-old Ruby Garcia. Court records show Brandon Ortiz-Vite, who was in the U.S. illegally, has confessed to killing her and dumping her along US-131 in Grand Rapids.

While police say the two were boyfriend and girlfriend, Ruby Garcia’s sister said the two were friends and that the relationship hadn’t gotten that far.

She said she knew that Ortiz-Vite was in the U.S. illegally, but didn’t know the details.

“I wish he would have stayed in Mexico,” Mavi Garcia said.

She spoke with the media days after the shooting, but the family asked for privacy after that, including on the day of the funeral. But she responded immediately to a text from Target 8 after Trump’s speech in Grand Rapids on Tuesday.

She said she’s angry that Trump and others have turned her sister’s death into something political.

I don’t know if a speech writer put it in Trump’s speech thinking it happened or Trump just said it off the cuff. Either way, Trump should be more careful. This is exactly the kind of thing that the media will persecute him for while ignoring all the lies Biden tells.
