💨 Abstract

A judge in Tennessee ordered the release of Kilmar Ábrego García, who was wrongfully deported under Trump's immigration policies, pending a federal trial for human trafficking charges. The judge ruled that Ábrego García should be presumed innocent and has the right to a fair trial. The government argues he should remain in custody due to potential deportation risks, but the judge noted that deportation is not within her jurisdiction.
