“This is the hand of the man that the Democrats feel should be brought back to the United States, because he is such ‘a fine and innocent person.’ They said he is not a member of MS-13, even though he’s got MS-13 tattooed onto his knuckles and two Highly Respected Courts found that he was a member of MS-13, beat up his wife, etc.,” the president posted on Truth Social on Friday evening.
Courts have not found that Abrego Garcia was a member of the gang.
As for “beating up his wife,” Trump was apparently referring to a short-ter
Government attorneys have never referenced the tattoos in court filings to support their claims that Abrego Garcia is a gang member. Their allegation rests on the word of a confidential police informant who in 2019 claimed the Maryland father was a member of MS-13’s “Westerns” clique, which operates out of New York, where Abrego Garcia has never lived.
Several social media users expressed doubt over the authenticity of the image of a hand Trump held in the post.
I believe eventually people who aren't peices of shit will manage to get Garcia back in the US. He should be able to sue the president for slander for this shit. I especially like how Trump added etc after MS-13 and the domestic issue with his wife. There's no etc, not even the MAGAs have managed to create other new illegal scenarios for this man (yet) Trump holding up a photoshopped picture as proof's pretty damn wild. I guess any 4 tattoos would mean MS-13 in Garcia's case.
And no, 2 highly respected courts didn't say he was an MS-13 member, they did say he was mistakenly identified as one and said there was no proof other than the word of a single informant who didn't have any proof himself.
