Listen "Deported by Mistake: The Kilmar Abrego Garcia Case and the Fight for Justice"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we delve into the harrowing story of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland resident and father who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador's notorious CECOT prison despite a 2019 court order protecting him from such removal. We explore the legal battles that ensued, including the U.S. Supreme Court's directive for the Trump administration to facilitate his return and the broader implications this case has on U.S. immigration policy, executive authority, and human rights.
