GREENBELT, Md. (AP) — The U.S. government’s decision to arrest a Maryland man and send him to a notorious prison in El Salvador appears to be “wholly lawless,” a federal judge wrote Sunday in a legal opinion explaining why she had ordered the Trump administration to bring him back to the United States.
There is little to no evidence to support a “vague, uncorroborated” allegation that Kilmar Abrego Garcia was once in the MS-13 street gang, U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis wrote. And in any case, she said, an immigration judge had expressly barred the U.S. in 2019 from deporting Abrego Garcia to El Salvador, where he faced likely persecution by local gangs.
“As defendants acknowledge, they had no legal authority to arrest him, no justification to detain him, and no grounds to send him to El Salvador — let alone deliver him into one of the most dangerous prisons in the Western Hemisphere,” Xinis wrote.
“And what are you gonna fucking do about it?” - Trump probably.
Wow I guess this means everyone in the chain of command who allowed this and took part in it should be arrested and put to trial, right? Like how you would to criminals who act “wholly unlawfully” right?
Maybe if this were South Korea…
… right!? (In a high pitch squeek)
so… criminally prosecute the administration who carried it out then, less talk, more action.
be like her. https://youtu.be/-k31IywrROo
So then can the judge please hold the people responsible in contempt and sentence them to prison? It’s time for a showdown
I can’t wait for my Trump-supporting parents to never ever hear about this.
You could send them this article
I sent them the previous one about him being deported.
Pretty sure they don’t read anything I send.
like the Siberian Gulag, but tropical
They know they broke the law
That was the point
To prove they can
Then Ask the general public to arrest every Federal official involved and put them in a citizens run jail. I’m ok with becoming the military arm of the courts if the Three letter groups are compromised.
“As defendants acknowledge, they had no legal authority to arrest him, no justification to detain him, and no grounds to send him to El Salvador — let alone deliver him into one of the most dangerous prisons in the Western Hemisphere,” Xinis wrote.
His family is gonna sue for oh, SO much. I hope the entirety of the administration is mentioned individually on the suit.
