Abrego Garcia's attorneys say government trying to coerce him to accept guilty plea or face deportation to Uganda

The federal government is trying to force Kilmar Abrego Garcia to accept a guilty plea or face deportation to Uganda, his attorneys claimed in a filing on Saturday.

The Salvadoran man, who was wrongly deported in March before being brought back to the United States to face human smuggling charges, was released from criminal custody in Tennessee and sent back to Maryland on Friday.

After Abrego Garcia declined an offer to be deported to Costa Rica in exchange for remaining in jail and pleading guilty to the human smuggling charges, his attorneys say U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement informed them that he could be deported to Uganda and ordered him to report to their office in Baltimore on Monday.

The attorneys said the development came after the government on Thursday said that if Abrego Garcia agreed to extend the stay and plead guilty to both counts of the indictment, the government would promise to deport Abrego Garcia to Costa Rica.

ABC News first reported that the government of Costa Rica informed the U.S. embassy on Thursday that the country would be willing to accept Abrego Garcia "upon the conclusion of any criminal sentence he may serve in the U.S."

But after Abrego Garcia refused to extend the stay and was released on Friday, Abrego Garcia's attorneys claim the government "responded to Mr. Abrego's release with outrage."

"Despite having requested and received assurances from the government of Costa Rica that Mr. Abrego would be accepted there, within minutes of his release from pretrial custody, an ICE representative...

Costa Rica is a pretty nice place. Don’t know why they’d accept an MS 13 gang member. Send him to Uganda. Little bit harder for him to return to his Maryland ‘homeland’.

Maybe he can have margaritas at the Mamdani Compound.

Poor Kill-more. He’s stuck between a rock and a hard place. Sucks to be him.

Ugandans prefer Mexican but they’ll settle for Salvadoran.

All problem with his deportation was some paperwork mistake. I believe they forgot sending copy to the idiotic judge who let him temporally stay.
The stupid guv attorney admitted under questioning “there was a mistake” (in paperwork), so now, all msm are parroting “deported by mistake”.
Not!, he was deported rightfully, despite the paperwork mistake. Nobody is perfect.

Anyway, I hope he will enjoy Uganda.

I saw the Abrega Kid coming out of the jail looking like an MS-13 Gang Thug. He wasn’t dressed in his Chrissy Van Hollen “Johnny America” outfit until he and his gangbangers joined up with the family in the master bedroom. The SOB is a fraud.

He wasn’t “wrongly deported”. That was just a myth created by a bunch of drunken “media” slobs and sloths still trying to recover from their pineapple head getting her but kicked in November.

I love the idea of sending him to Uganda.

Maybe he can walk aimlessly in the desert when his sentence is over, in 70 years.

Right. Is he an illegal alien? Yes? Then he wasn’t “wrongly” deported.

Even if he was, I don’t really care. Leftists do not care about facts, logic, reason, or the Law. Why should anyone else?

Their rules are (among others) 1. “there are no rules” and 2. “by any means necessary” so let’s everybody dispense with those old fashioned archaic, outdated “rule of law” notions and give them the same ten times over.

Why is the “media” protecting the Abrego Kid’s scrotum sack lawyer’s name? I’ve read two articles and have been unable to find it.

Uganda...
Wonderfully located next to Barack Hussein Obama’s homeland...
Just drop him off in a parachute, which I’ll volunteer to pack carefully...
