Judge drops criminal case against Kilmar Abrego García, deeming it vindictive - The Washington Post
Overview
A federal judge dismissed the Justice Department’s human-smuggling case against Kilmar Abrego García, ruling the prosecution was vindictive. Courts had earlier found García was illegally deported to El Salvador, and the judge concluded the charges were brought to punish him for successfully challenging that deportation. The ruling adds to a pattern of judicial scrutiny of aggressive immigration enforcement and related prosecutions.
