A man recently deported from Maryland to El Salvador was a known member of the violent MS-13 gang, according to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who addressed the issue on Tuesday, clarifying that while the deportation may have stemmed from a bureaucratic mistake, it involved a dangerous individual.
The deportee, Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, is believed to be held at CECOT, a high-security prison in El Salvador infamous for housing gang leaders and violent offenders. Leavitt emphasized that despite reports of an administrative oversight, Abrego Garcia was far from a low-risk individual.
