ICE Official to Testify on Abrego Garcia’s Deportation Process

A top Immigration and Customs Enforcement official will testify about the Trump administration’s efforts to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Liberia, amid his criminal trial for human smuggling. The administration argues for lifting a court order blocking his deportation, claiming all necessary steps have been completed. Abrego Garcia, initially deported to El Salvador despite legal protections, has faced renewed attempts at deportation to multiple African nations. His legal team contends these actions are retaliatory and challenges the government’s claims of no persecution risk in Liberia.
