The U.S. Supreme Court has ordered the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national, to the U.S. after the Trump administration mistakenly deported him. Abrego Garcia, who had lived in the U.S. for 14 years, faced allegations of being an MS-13 gang member but was never charged. He had fled to the U.S. to escape gang threats in El Salvador, where his family was extorted and harassed. Despite being denied asylum by an immigration judge, he was granted protection from deportation due to fear of gang persecution.
Abrego Garcia had married a U.S. citizen and was raising three children with disabilities. He had a stable job and had been checking in with ICE yearly while holding a work permit. However, in February, he was mistakenly deported to El Salvador by the Trump administration, which had designated MS-13 as a foreign terrorist organization.
His wife, Jennifer Vasquez Sura, fought for his return, and the Supreme Court’s ruling allows Abrego Garcia to come back to the U.S. and continue his case. The family’s story highlights the challenges faced by immigrants fleeing violence and seeking a better life in the U.S. despite facing wrongful accusations and deportation threats. Abrego Garcia’s case sheds light on the legal complexities and human rights issues surrounding immigration and deportation policies.
