Breaking news: Kilmar Abrego García cannot be re-detained by U.S. immigration authorities, a federal judge ruled, acting on fears raised by his lawyers that officials intended to take him into custody just hours after he was ordered released. https://t.co/jP58xTJ1Ec

[The Washington Post @washingtonpost]

Breaking news: A federal judge ordered the “immediate release” of Kilmar Abrego García, a 30-year-old immigrant from El Salvador, from ICE custody, saying Department of Justice attorneys “misled” the court at a hearing last month. https://t.co/PnQLTkn1cg

SCOOP: DOJ lawyers told a federal judge yesterday they have to deport Kilmar Abrego to Liberia because the door to Costa Rica was closed.

Costa Rica says that’s not true.

Read it:

[The Washington Post @washingtonpost]

A high-ranking Costa Rican official said the country remains willing to accept the deportation of Kilmar Abrego García, rebutting the Trump administration’s claims that the only possible destination for the Salvadoran immigrant is Liberia. https://t.co/z7ShGhYnXc

Incarcerated writer Kwaneta Harris says solitary confinement keeps no one safe. “The answer isn’t throwing them in a concrete box for years; it’s trauma-informed care, therapeutic communities, meditation programs, restorative justice practices.”
