Newly resurfaced 2018 court documents support claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia, deported to El Salvador, was affiliated with MS-13.
His partner’s ex-husband alleged Garcia posed a threat to his children, prompting a custody battle. Garcia’s wife, Jennifer Vasquez Sura, has since become an advocate for his return, sparking political controversy. President Trump defended the deportation, citing Garcia’s criminal ties and history of domestic abuse. While a judge ordered efforts to bring Garcia back, the administration argues he remains a deportable illegal immigrant. Trump insists broader immigration enforcement takes precedence over Garcia’s case.
