Kilmar's Fight: Deported, Charged, and Fighting Back

0:00It's April 7th. I'm Cory with The Story. This is Canada News Today, driven by AI. Killmar-Abrigo Garcia's story blew up in March 2025 when ICE deported him to El Salvador, even though a court had ruled years earlier, he couldn't go back there. This guy fled gang threats as a teen around 2011, got a work permit after his 2019 immigration hearing and was living under. Supervision in Maryland with his family. Once forward, Supreme Court stepped in by April and ordered the Trump admins to bring him home from that brutal prison. But soon after his return in June, Feds hit him with human smuggling charges from a 2022 Tennessee traffic stop, he's pleading not guilty, saying it's retaliation. The case is fired of both sides in the immigration fight, with critics calling out ICE mistakes and supporters pushing hard-line enforcement. His five-year-old son was in the car during his last detention, and it's torn his Maryland family apart while spotlighting deportation errors.

1:00Lately, ICE keeps trying to ship him to African spots like Uganda, but Maryland judges shut that down with injunctions and release orders, first in. December 2025, then ruling no more detentions by February 2026. Right now, he's out awaiting trial. But this back and forth shows how tangled these policies get, leaving folks in limbo and refueling the whole debate.
