White House Refuses To Return Wrongly Deported Man | 10 News First
NC | News

A Maryland Federal judge questioned the Trump administration on Tuesday for its refusal to retrieve Kilmar Abrego Garcia from an El Salvador prison, even after the Supreme Court ordered his returned to the US. The Trump administration expelled Abrego Garcia to El Salvador last month – separating the the 29-year-old from his wife and three children – alleging he was an MS-13 gang member and “illegal alien”. Abrego Garcia – who was shielded from deportation in 2019 and was given a federal permit to work in the US – was never charged with a crime and has denied he has any affiliation with MS-13. The US Supreme Court has ordered the Trump administration must facilitate Abrego Garcia’s release, but the White House has argued that the courts cannot intrude on the president’s diplomacy powers.
