Dope1: Except this guy IS MS-13.
Read the court filing.
Give this some thought: Abrego Garcia came to the United States at age 16 in 2011 after fleeing gang threats in his native El Salvador. He is married to a U.S. citizen, has a 5-year-old disabled child who is also a U.S. citizen, and despite the allegation he is an active member of MS-13 he has no criminal record in the United States. None. He's lived here fourteen years with an arrest.
His attorney said that the allegations Abrego Garcia was a gang member stem from a 2019 incident when Abrego Garcia and three other men were detained in a Home Depot parking lot by a police detective in Prince George’s County, Maryland. During questioning, one of the men told officers that Abrego Garcia was a gang member, but the man offered no proof and police said they didn’t believe him, filings show. Police did not identify him as a gang member.
There was nothing there but they turned him over to ICE.
According to the court filing, in deportation proceedings the government claimed that a reliable informant had identified him as a ranking member of MS-13. Abrego Garcia and his family hired an attorney and fought the government’s attempt to deport him. He received “withholding of removal” six months later, a protected status, and has been free to terrorize his community since early 2020.
Since then, he has not been arrested, not committed any crimes, and has had no contact with any law-enforcement agency. He works full-time, has complied with requirements to check in annually with ICE, and cares for his 5-year-old son, who has autism and a hearing defect.
Now, if he was an active member of MS-13 and a hardened criminal who is a danger to his community, doncha' think he just might have been arrested in the five years since his release after his deportation hearing?
Yet nothing.
If there was such an airtight case against him, why didn't the Government prosecute him during Trump's first reign of terror? If not then, why not during his second reign of terror? What are we waiting for, Trump's Third Reich?
