The Vindictive Cycle: Politics and Prosecution in the Ábrego Case The Trump administration's decision to pursue Kilmar Ábrego García on previously dismissed charges has reignited concerns about prosecutorial overreach and politics driven prosecutions.
Last week, the administration asked a federal appeals court to reinstate human smuggling charges against Ábrego, which had been dismissed by a Nashville based judge in May.
Ábrego's case is well documented: his wrongful deportation to El Salvador, his eventual return to the US via a federal supreme court order, and the subsequent reinstatement of original charges.
