Alleged MS-13 Gang Member Kilmar Abrego Garcia Detained by ICE Just Days After Release [WATCH]

Alleged MS-13 member Kilmar Abrego Garcia was taken into ICE custody again Monday — this time facing possible deportation to Uganda.

“Today, ICE law enforcement arrested Kilmar Abrego Garcia and are processing him for deportation,” Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said.

“President Trump is not going to allow this illegal alien, who is an MS-13 gang member, human trafficker, serial domestic abuser, and child predator to terrorize American citizens any longer.”

From The New York Post:

The 30-year-old had reported to the ICE Field Office in Baltimore just after 7:30 a.m. after being released from a Tennessee jail last week as he awaits trial on human smuggling charges.

Abrego Garcia, who was brought back to the US in June after being deported to his native El Salvador earlier this year, had rejected an offer last week to plead guilty to the charges.

US officials offered to send him to Costa Rica if he copped to transporting migrants living illegally in the US – or risk being sent to Uganda, his lawyers argued in court documents.

“They’re holding Costa Rica as a carrot and using Uganda as a stick,” his lawyer, Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg, said outside the ICE field office in downtown Baltimore.

“They’re weaponizing the immigration system in a way that’s completely unconstitutional.”

Abrego Garcia was detained by immigration authorities shortly after reporting for a scheduled interview.
