Overview

  • Since his Supreme Court-ordered return on June 6, Garcia has been held in a Tennessee federal facility on charges of human smuggling and alleged MS-13 membership.
  • In early July his attorneys filed a federal lawsuit in Maryland detailing claims that he endured beatings, sleep deprivation, inadequate food and psychological torture in El Salvador’s CECOT prison.
  • The Department of Homeland Security continues to label Garcia a “dangerous criminal alien” and asserts he will never walk free on U.S. soil again.
  • Garcia originally received protective status in 2019 after a U.S. court determined he faced persecution in El Salvador.
  • Human rights advocates and legal experts say his case exposes tensions between executive deportation policies and judicial oversight of immigration enforcement.
