Mistakenly deported Salvadoran native Kilmar Abrego Garcia is on his way back to the United States where he will face criminal charges for allegedly transporting undocumented migrants within the U.S., according to sources familiar with the matter.
More than two months after the Trump administration admitted it mistakenly deported Abrego Garcia from Maryland to his native El Salvador, a federal grand jury has indicted him for allegedly transporting undocumented migrants within the United States, ABC News has learned.
A two-count indictment, which was filed under seal in federal court in Tennessee last month, alleges Abrego Garcia, 29, participated in a years-long conspiracy to haul undocumented migrants from Texas to the interior of the country, according to sources briefed on the indictment.
Hey, the thing that should have happened before Republicans took a shit on our Constitution by denying due process.
See, the thing about due process is it either absolves the innocent or properly punishes criminals for their crimes. So it’s a win/win. But you can’t have that if fascists are breaking the law to prevent it.
Ideally, it does. Unfortunately, there are plenty of innocent people convicted and criminals never charged even though they’re caught, not to mention certain “kinds of people” getting lighter sentences than others.
Due process is a critical and necessary component of a fair justice system, but be careful not to lose sight of the bigger picture.
