Trump lawyers confirm wrongly deported Maryland man in El Salvador prison

Administration fails to show they have taken any steps to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia

The Trump administration on Saturday confirmed to a federal judge that a Maryland man who was wrongly deported last month remains confined in a notorious prison in El Salvador.

However, the White House filing did not address the judge's demands that the administration detail the steps it was taking to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States. The White House only confirmed that Garcia was under the authority of the El Salvador government.
