Kilmar Abrego Garcia Released From ICE Custody, His Attorneys Confirm

In an email on Friday, Dec. 5, the Buncombe County Sheriff's Office said internal investigations into all three custody incidents have concluded and reversed a public alert less than 24 hours after deputies warned of a mistaken release.
On Oct. 2 the sheriff's office said detainee Joseph Shustek was wrongfully released, calling it a 'serious institutional failure' and noting that the systems in place failed.
Disciplinary actions included an employee fired on Tuesday, Dec. 2, and other jail employees disciplined, with the sheriff's office saying the situation was 'not acceptable' and steps have begun.
The sheriff's office said the findings will not be released publicly, citing North Carolina General Statute 132-1.7, and declined to say whether jail supervisors or leadership were disciplined.
Concerns center on the eCourts case management system after the sheriff's office blamed a clerical error for the three custody incidents, the first known in Buncombe.
