Judge keeps Kilmar Abrego Garcia in jail over concerns ICE will deport him immediately after release

www.independent.co.uk ICE plans to Kilmar Abrego Garcia, again, after release from criminal custody

ICE plans to deport him to another country other than El Salvador, government lawyers say

Abrego Garcia’s attorneys expressed concern that his release would lead to immediate detention by ICE and deportation

Kilmar Abrego Garcia will remain in jail for now after fears that Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents will swoop to deport him as soon as he is released.

Abrego Garcia’s attorneys expressed concern that his release would lead to immediate detention by ICE and deportation.

A federal judge ruled the Salvadoran father, who was criminally accused of human smuggling, has a right to be released and even set specific conditions.

But he will remain in jail for at least a few more days while attorneys spar over whether prosecutors can prevent Abrego Garcia's deportation if he is released to await trial.

Locking people up to protect them from being deported. What a beautiful distopia
- Land of the free. We're all just volleyballs for different police forces to bounce around now.

Armed bodyguards would keep the ICE away. The judge should deputize community volunteers, and give them explicit permission to put down rabid DOGEs,

Only in the United States is it more safe to be in jail. Fuckin clown country.
- Unless you have knowledge and possibly evidence that politicians, world leaders, movie stars, and pretty much every ceo is into children and human trafficking as long as it's on a private island.
  Then you might just experience the craziest set of coincidences!

America: At best, we’ll jail you for your own protection.

ICE needs to be abolished and all staff prosecuted, they are a rogue agency.
- Rogue agency doesn't really apply. They are doing exactly what they have been told to do. That's the problem. You wouldn't have the gestapo without Heinrich Müller and Adolf Hitler.
  
  Every officer knows they need warrants and to identify themselves and that all arrests see a judge or they get released. Any officer not doing so is committing a felony and they know that. I say anyone who assisted at any point needs to be prosecuted, following orders isn't a defense.

From this, he has a slam dunk of a case to sue The United States for damages on 24/7 365 security.
Literally sue the US for like $5M for the cost of constant security. Let the gravy seals step to some professionals.
- You have to get permission to sue the us from the us.

This reminds me of a story from "They thought they were free". A Jew was accused of raping a woman. The judge heard the case and determined he was innocent. However, the gestapo were waiting outside the court to nab the accused as soon as the trial ended.
The judge decided to stick to his verdict instead of ruling guilty to put him in a normal prison instead of a concentration camp. After all, how could he justify ruling an innocent man guilty, even if that was objectively a better result for the man?

any sane person still living in the masquerading third-world-shithole called US, make your way to Europe, we love social security and freedom of expression, religion, movement and speech. Love and solidarity from Deutschland <3
- Hey, what are you doing! Leave them hillbillies on the other side of the pond please. We've got enough shit to deal with ourselves like the AfD, Orban, nearly all EU governments being right wing, etc. I definitely don't feel like having to deal with Americans with their behavior. Let the good Americans fight the oppression in their country, otherwise nothing will stop the tyranny.
- Do you though? As much as I love Germany, you seem to have your own far-right problem. According to the news your government just banned the AfD party, and has been putting down protests over Israeli genocide in Gaza. That doesn't seem very free too me.
  Point being, everybody has their problems, ours in the U.S. right now are pretty bad, but that doesn't mean the rest of the world is all roses and socialism.
  
  Isn’t banning AfD a sign that they’re taking steps to correct the far-right problem?
  
  the AfD is proven anti-constitutional and want to dissassemble the democratic fundamentals that make Germany what it is today. We have a problem with narrative pushing bots and corrupt media only highlighting immigrant criminal cases, but the vast majority of people are against the AfD. Banning them protects our democracy and constitution. I agree with you that older people sometimes share very xenophobic world views, and that our guilt to Israel blinds us to what they are doing in Gaza, but a lot of people are speaking out against the Netanyahu regime openly on the streets and support Ukraine in their quest to staying a souvereign state, rather than a russian sattelite state, like it used to be under the Soviet Union. I was born, grew up and still live in the GDR region, which was also controlled by Russia during the cold war, and I NEVER want to have them back as our occupiers. I would rather die at the front and protect our free and democratic country, than subject my nephews to a possible world order, where they are under the boot of an autocrat that treats them as cannonfodder to expand their imperialistic dreams of total power and control
  
  The AfD was NOT banned.
- From what I can tell it isn’t actually possible to do that unless you are at least rich enough to afford a PHD.
  My wife and I have been trying to move out of the states for a decade.
  
  Fwiw, I was able to leave the states with only a bachelor's. It was through an extraordinary set of circumstances but it is technically possible
- All my friends that have been to Europe said the racism there is worse than US, because people in US are at least not racist to your face, (or maybe there's more diversity here and people live in bubbles, this could be significant reason that my friends didn't think of; they mostly interact with international people).
  Most of the time when I hear and see a country being great about society and such, it seems to be great for their own citizens. Which is understandable. But that means we don't really have much choice of other countries accepting us (I'm brown and have an accent so I can't fit in in Europe).
- I'd love to. I had hoped to get Italian citizenship by descent, but the laws changed.
  In 2 years, my kid graduates high school. He wants to go to college in Italy. We had hoped to be able to wait until then, but that may not be tenable anymore.
  Can you give guidance on the best way to immigrate and get a Euro citizenship? I'm 60 with a good job in technology.
  Btw... My Calabrian great grandmother's maiden name is 2 letters off from your username. Allemagnia.
  
  You need minimum B1 language in most European countries for both immigration and businesses to consider you for long term employment and or settlement, so that's a start.
- we love social security and freedom of expression, religion, movement and speech. Love and solidarity from Deutschland <3
  For now.
- Your shit stinks too.
- Are you funding this emigration?
- The last thing we want to hear is being talked down to by someone else, it's not helpful and just comes across as arrogant.
