Immigration Judge Denies Asylum Request of Kilmar Abrego Garcia

A Baltimore court denied an attempt to reopen Abrego Garcia’s 2019 asylum case on Wednesday, but the decision is not final. The Board of Immigration Appeals has 30 days to hear an appeal from Abrego Garcia.

The Salvadoran national, who has lived in Maryland for years with an American wife and kids, entered the country illegally as a teenager. He was taken into custody by immigration officials in 2019. He applied for asylum, but since he had been in the country for more than a year, he was not accepted. He faced danger from a gang that targeted his family in El Salvador, but the judge decided that he could not be deported there.

In response to a Supreme Court decision, the administration brought him back to the United States in June, but promptly accused him of smuggling human beings. Because to a traffic stop in 2022, Abrego Garcia is facing criminal accusations in Tennessee. Eswatini, a tiny nation in southern Africa where the king still has absolute control, is the second country that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has proposed as the destination for his deportation. Uganda is the first. The criminal accusations and deportation efforts have been condemned by his lawyers, who claim they are an attempt to punish him for opposing the administration.
