Description

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an immigrant who gained notoriety due to his wrongful deportation during the Trump administration, has been released from immigration detention. A federal judge in Maryland ordered his immediate release, stating that authorities had no legal basis to hold him again after his return to the United States. Abrego Garcia, who had originally immigrated to the U.S. illegally as a teenager and resided in Maryland for many years, was released to his home where he lives with his American wife and child. The Department of Homeland Security criticized the judges ruling and vowed to appeal, but Abrego Garcias attorney emphasized that the judge made it clear that indefinite detention without legal authority is unacceptable.
