Kilmar Abrego Garcia is free from custody and en route to Maryland, where he will await trial with his family. His lawyers argue he is facing a “vindictive” prosecution by the Justice Department.
DOJ informed him that they want to deport him to Uganda on Monday. But they apparently failed to read this footnote in Judge Xinis’s order on the required 72 hour notice:
It’s a little interesting that we keep sending our deportees to countries notorious for human rights violations. It’s concerning that they’re so willing to take them from us. It should be equally concerning to people as to why the US isn’t also taking in those countries’ deportees. Why are these countries agreeing to one-way streets with the US?
Money?
“Such relief is premature,” as if they haven’t already shipped him off to one country he’d never been to.
But don’t worry, they’ll revisit the request, if someone does it again!
