Maryland Dad Wrongly Deported To El Salvador Now Facing Removal To Uganda
Kilmar Abrego Garcia's stay back in Maryland — and the United States — may be short-lived. The Maryland father of three was released from custody in Tennessee and ordered back home to his family months after he was deported to a notorious Salvadoran prison due to "an administrative error." Abrego Garcia, an alleged former MS-13 gang member, is now likely to be deported to Uganda, according to reports, after he refused to plead guilty to human smuggling charges, which would have allowed him to serve his time in Costa Rica. "The government informed Mr. Abrego that he has until first th…

He has since been questioned about alleged ties to MS-13. On Monday, April 21, Hyattsville Police officials clarified that several years ago, they encountered Abrego Garcia as part of a suspicious group loitering outside a retailer in the 3300 block of East…

Deported Maryland Father Linked To MS-13 Was Suspected Of Human Trafficking In 2022: Report
Alleged MS-13 gang member and Maryland father Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador, was known to the feds as far back as 2022, according to a new report. According to a report from the Department of Homeland Security, in December 2022, Abrego Garcia was stopped by troopers from the Tennessee Highway patrol when he was unable to stay in his lane. The report states that at the time, troopers made note that there were eight others inside the vehicle, and Abrego Garcia advised that he started driving "three days ago" from Houston to Temple Hills in Marylan…

Senator Denied Prison Visit With Wrongfully Deported Man In El Salvador
Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen's trip to El Salvador to visit Kilmar Abrego Garcia in prison took an unexpected turn on Thursday. Van Hollen was denied access to Abrego Garcia at the CECOT high-security facility—along with the family's lawyer—as they went to check on his well-being, the senator said on April 17. "We just tried to go visit him in prison, just to check on his condition, and if he is doing okay, because nobody has had any communication from him since he was illegally abducted from Maryland and sent to prison in El Salvador," Van Hollen said miles away from the prison. Van Hol…

"Moments ago, the Illegal Criminal, who was allowed into our Country by Crooked Joe Biden, was convicted of the heinous murder of Rachel Morin," he wrote. "Rachel was a beautiful mother of five from Maryland, and her life was tak…

US Senators Demand Return Of Wrongfully Deported Maryland Dad From El Salvador Prison
A Maryland father wrongly deported to a notorious mega-prison in El Salvador has become the focus of a growing political firestorm, with more than two dozen US senators now demanding that the Trump administration bring him home. Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who has lived in the US since 2011, was detained by ICE after being stopped in March 2025 while picking up his son from his grandmother's home, "inaccurately telling him that his protected status had changed," according to court documents. Federal officials later admitted their error after Abrego Garcia was mistakenly deported to El Salvador's …

Dad From DMV Deported By 'Mistake' To El Salvador Mega-Prison, Despite Court Order
Top officials in the Trump administration admitted to mistakenly deporting a Maryland father to an El Salvadoran mega-prison—despite a court order blocking his removal. Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who lived in Maryland with his wife and 5-year-old child, was taken into ICE custody in March and deported just days later, federal officials said in a new court filing on Monday, March 31. His family says he should never have been removed in the first place. Abrego Garcia had previously been granted withholding of removal by an immigration judge back in 2019—meaning the g…
