Hacked Flight Manifests Reveal Dozens More Trump Deportees Vanished to El Salvador Prison

Leaked manifests expose unacknowledged prisoners at CECOT in El Salvador under a secret Trump administration deportation program.

Overview

  • A July 17 breach of GlobalX flight logs shows at least 40 additional migrants on March 15 deportation flights to CECOT, pushing the total to about 281 individuals.
  • Many of the unacknowledged deportees had no criminal records and were expelled without judicial review under the administration’s use of the Alien Enemies Act and Title 8 removals.
  • The Trump administration has declined to acknowledge the extra deportations or provide any updates on the current whereabouts of those listed in the hacked manifests.
  • Federal judges previously blocked similar mass expulsions and ordered returns, while advocacy groups are now suing for full disclosure, identity confirmation and repatriation of wrongfully deported people.
  • Human rights experts warn that sending detainees to the overcrowded CECOT prison without due process risks involuntary disappearances, torture allegations and denial of consular access.
