US EditionUS Man Wrongly Deported Under Trump Policy Released From Prison
Abrego Garcia, wrongly deported due to an administrative error despite protected status, faces human smuggling charges with trial set for January 2027, his lawyers said.
- Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran man detained on human smuggling charges, was released from prison on Friday and is returning to Maryland.
- His wrongful deportation to El Salvador, including confinement at the notorious CECOT prison, was due to an administrative error amid Trump’s crackdown on undocumented migrants.
- Abrego Garcia denies the charges, which accuse him of smuggling migrants from Central America between 2016 and earlier this year, and his trial is set for January 2027.
- His attorney Sean Hecker called the government’s actions a “vindictive attack” and said Abrego Garcia is grateful for “meaningful due process,” while the White House labeled him a “criminal illegal alien” linked to MS-13.
- Following a July court ruling requiring 72 hours’ notice before any deportation, Abrego Garcia will remain under ankle monitoring for public safety pending further proceedings.
