Update: Another judge in Tennessee ruled that he will remain in jail if ICE is barred from re-arresting him:
Original story:
"Maryland man" Kilmar Abrego Garcia apparently made his way back from El Salvador to America on June 6 only to be arrested in Tennessee for human smuggling (hard to believe, I know).
And now, a judge has ruled that if Kilmar is released from pretrial incarceration he cannot be taken into ICE custody.
Essentially, ICE was going to take this "Maryland man" into custody and likely deport him again. So this judge wants to assure Abrego Garcia is able to get back home to Maryland.
More context from CBS News:
A federal judge on Wednesday barred federal immigration authorities from immediately taking Kilmar Abrego Garcia into custody once he is released from criminal confinement in Tennessee and ordered the Trump administration to provide him 72 hours' notice if it plans to initiate proceedings to remove him to a country that is not his place of origin.
The order from U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis was issued as a federal judge in Tennessee, who is presiding over Abrego Garcia's criminal case, ruled that the Salvadoran national should be released from the custody of federal law enforcement under conditions that will be set by a magistrate judge.
Man, these judges will do anything to make sure criminal illegal aliens stay in our country!
