He was determined to be an illegal in 2019, he had a deportation order. His "guilt" was proven long ago and as far as I know everyone including his counsel agree he is an "illegal alien". There really isn't anything to prove at this point, the only issue really involved in this whole thing is where he could be deported to i.e. the original order excludes El Salvador.
You're happy for a dude that illegally entered in the country, falsely filed for legal status, was determined to be an illegal and refused to leave, beat his wife, and now has cost the U.S. all kinds of money?

Kilmar Abrego Garcia To Be Deported after refusing plea offer
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Immigration officials said they intend to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda, after he declined an offer to be sent to Costa Rica in exchange for remaining in jail and pleading guilty to human smuggling charges, according to a Saturday court filing.
The Costa Rica offer came late Thursday, after it was clear that the Salvadoran national would likely be released from a Tennessee jail the following day. Abrego Garcia declined to extend his stay in jail and was released on Friday to await trial in Maryland with his family. Later that day, the Department of Homeland Security notified his attorneys that he would be deported to Uganda and should report to immigration authorities on Monday.
Filed along with the brief was a letter from the Costa Rican government stating that Abrego Garcia would be welcomed to that country as a legal immigrant and wouldn’t face the possibility of detention. An additional benefit of the offer would be that Costa Rica is a Spanish-speaking country, like Abrego Garcia’s native El Salvador. Abrego Garcia would only be deported to Costa Rica after serving his sentence on the smuggling charges, according to the brief.

If he is worried about vindictive prosecution, show up on Monday and get deported or take a flight today (if the government will allow him to leave pending the criminal case).
It would seem he was free to go years ago.

Wrong. No wonder you love Trump... you both enjoy just making s*** up.
Judge forbids Homeland Security from trying to immediately deport Abrego Garcia
Kilmar Abrego Garcia was a “Maryland man” before he was arrested and deported in March, and a federal judge Wednesday ordered that he must become a Maryland man again once he is released from pretrial detention.
Judge Paula Xinis, an Obama appointee to the court in Maryland, said she feared the Department of Homeland Security would try to hide Mr. Abrego Garcia from her and move to speedily deport him once he is no longer being held in his criminal case in Tennessee.
She forbade U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement from immediately arresting Mr. Abrego Garcia when he is released in Tennessee and said he must be returned to his previous status in the Maryland community.

I don't "love Trump" and have never voted for him one time.

You are projecting cause you are completely wrong. Garcia will be sent out of the country by next week legally.
I don't understand why you try to defend this criminal, it's weird

This courtroom sketch depicts U.S. Magistrate Judge Barbara Holmes in court during a detention hearing for Kilmar Abrego Garcia on June 25, 2025, in Nashville, Tenn. (AP Photo/Diego Fishburn)
Prior to her appointment as a magistrate judge in October 2015, Holmes served as president of the Nashville Bar Association in 2002 and on its board of directors from 1999 to 2002 and 2010 to 2015. She planned and hosted the National Association of Women Judges 43rd annual meeting in October 2021, hiring groups such as the “Song Suffragettes” to perform.
Holmes notably served as the Judges Chair for the 2018 Legal Aid Society’s Campaign for Equal Justice. Various branches of the Legal Aid Society, including in Washington, DC and New York, are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts and have provided legal services to illegal aliens, even publishing a webpage dedicated to “fighting for racial equity.”

Never judge a man until you walk a mile in his shoes.
You describe Garcia as a "criminal". What crime has he committed? Be specific.
Do you agree that Garcia is a person who should be afforded basic human rights... particularly given he has an American wife with children in Maryland?
What crime was Garcia convicted of that resulted in our country deporting him to the *maximum security* CECOT prison in El Salvador?
Have you ever been imprisoned yet committed no crime?
Is it "just" and right for the US to knowingly and willfully imprison innocent people?
Is it just for our country to deport and imprison unconvicted US residents, or do those residing in our country - legally or not - deserve due process?
What prompted Ben Schrader to resign from his position as Chief of the Criminal Division at the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Tennessee on May 21, 2025, after nearly 15 years of service?
And given your advocation of Garcia's second deportation, do you think we should deport him - he's originally from El Salvador - to Uganda (a "sh*thole" crime-ridden African country) or Costa Rica (a decent Spanish speaking country near El Salvador)?
Lastly, do you think it's right that the DHS has threatened to immediately deport Garcia to Uganda instead of Costa Rica if he doesn't agree to skip his upcoming trial and instead plea bargain whereby he confesses to the crime of human trafficking?
Are you familiar with the term "coercion"?
To summarize...
Garcia has committed no crime. He was illegal deported to El Salvador without any legal hearing or due process whatsoever... in direct violation of a court order prohibiting that. Despite the order, Trump and his goons ignored the court system and refused to bring Garcia back - which they obviously could have at any time.
Thus, Trump knowingly and willfully imprisoned an innocent man by arranging for his deportation directly to a maximum security prison in El Salvador. Eventually, our Supreme Court and others effectively forced Trump to bring Garcia back to the US despite their prior lies that they could not.
Trump then tried to force the head Federal prosecutor in Tennessee to file bogus human trafficking charges against Garcia, despite the fact that there was no prior conclusion or adequate evidence he did so. As a direct result, that federal prosecutor resigned from his position - clearly in protest that politics was trumping the Rule of Law in our country.
And now, in the greatest of ironies, our DHS is *illegally* attempting to coerce Garcia into admitting to a crime he didn't commit else face immediate deportation.
Our government is in the wrong here. The Trump administration is now resorting to violating our own laws in the name of "justice".
The ends do not justify the means. This must stop.
I hope the Judge overseeing this case dismisses all charges against Garcia and issues an injunction preventing his deportation.
It's the right thing to do at this point.

To each of your inane points
- Who is judging? I am stating obvious facts, as per objective facts and a history in law enforcement, I feel I can look at the facts and make a determination here.
- Garcia is a criminal who has committed at LEAST domestic assault, stalking, and entering the US illegally. There is more than sufficient evidence for the trafficking charge, but even then it's not needed to deport him legally.
- Garcia has had "basic human rights". He is not here legally and has no legal standing to contest the two legal deportation orders that two separate judges AND the higher court has ruled on. Who cares about his wife (who claimed to be afraid of him) and kids think? Criminals are separated from their families due to their choices every day.
- Being in the country illegal was the first crime of why he has deportation orders, and that alone is enough despite the other stuff
- No I've never been imprisoned without committing a crime and neither has Garcia
- Again Garcia had due process multiple times
- I don't know and don't care about Ben Schrader
- Garcia stated he didn't want to go to El Salvador, he could self deport to any country he wants to, if he is refusing to follow the order, than the US can ship him anywhere else they want
- Sure, again the US can ship illegal criminals anywhere they want to and have done this for decades
- yes I am familiar with "coercion" and that has nothing to do with Garcia willingly and knowingly breaking multiple laws

He has been ordered to appear tomorrow in Maryland. He has a valid deportation order. Now there might be something else to this but you are not shedding light on it at this point. He has been determined 6 years ago to be an illegal alien, as far as I know his family and counsel have further said he is an illegal alien.
He has been determined to be an illegal alien from which he appears to have a valid deportation order. The rest of his crimes are now pending.

I gather you're educated but I think you're unfamiliar with a few basic legal tenants here in the United States.
The first is habeas corpus. This is a fundamental legal right and court order that protects individuals from unlawful imprisonment, requiring the government to present a prisoner and justify the detention before a judge. This right of Garcia was violated by DHS. If you don't like that Garcia is afforded the writ of habeas corpus, then you similarly have no objections to you, personally, being arrested and imprisoned in the future without any cause, right to a hearing or legal process.
The second is due process. This is a course of formal proceedings (as judicial proceedings) carried out regularly, fairly, and in accordance with established rules and principles. Garcia's right to due process was violated in multiple ways including his deportation to El Salvador despite a court order prohibiting this, illegal detention, vindictive prosecution, and now coercion.
The third is the fifth amendment. The Fifth Amendment guarantees due process for all persons in the U.S., including undocumented immigrants. Your suggestion that Garcia has no rights to due process, therefore, is simply wrong.
Look, I understand that you *think* that guys like Garcia are guilty until proven innocent and should be instantaneously deported, but that's not how the legal system works. Trump and his goons have played loose and fast with the law to fulfill his campaign promises, but the judicial branch is catching up with him and holding that many of his actions have violated the law. Not only with Garcia, but also with all the folks Trump illegally deported to El Salvador and Venezuela.
Again, you may not like it, but persons residing here in the US have basic legal rights... and for good reason.
@lawgator1 is far more versed than I am on legal subjects, and may have more to add or opine.
