Trump Administration Again Detains AND THREATENS Kilmar Abrego Garcia!

Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

About

Abrego Garcia has fought the Trump administration multiple times and won. But Trump and company just can't quit violating Abrego's constitutional rights.

After DOJ lawyers lost a motion to keep him detained in connection with his criminal case in Tennessee, Abrego was released from prison and traveled home to his family in Maryland. However, when he went to his immigration appointment on Monday, Trump's officials put him back in custody again. Even worse, DOJ lawyers threatened Abrego that, if he didn't plead guilty to the Trumped-up criminal charges in Tennessee, they would deport him to Uganda. But if he did plead guilty (to crimes he says he didn't commit), then they would deport him to Costa Rica, where he would live as a free man.

Glenn says: This kind of threat is both vindictive and violative of constitutional due process guarantees.
