Trump Claims Feds Have 'Very Easy Case' Against Kilmar Abrego Garcia
HuffPost
The president weighed in on the prosecution of the man mistakenly sent to a notorious prison in El Salvador, then brought back to the U.S. only to face criminal charges.
President Donald Trump has expressed confidence that the federal government will win its case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Salvadoran immigrant who has returned to the United States for criminal prosecution after being mistakenly deported and sent to a maximum security prison in El Salvador.
“It should be a very easy case,” Trump told NBC News on Saturday.
The president also said it wasn’t his decision to bring back Abrego Garcia, who lived in Maryland with his American citizen wife and children prior to his arrest in March.
But, said Trump, the “Department of Justice decided to do it that way, and that’s fine.”
Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Friday that Abrego Garcia had “landed” back in the U.S., months after he was sent to the notorious CECOT facility in what the Trump administration called an “administrative error.”
