法官驳回针对被错误驱逐出境的移民的人口贩运指控
Read, Watch or Listen
Nashville, Tenn. U.S. District Judge Waverly Crenshaw on Friday dismissed federal human-smuggling charges against Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran man who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador last year. Crenshaw granted Abrego Garcia's motion to dismiss for selective or vindictive prosecution after earlier finding evidence that the prosecution may have been vindictive and noting connections to his successful suit challenging removal. The judge concluded prosecutors failed to rebut the presumption of vindictiveness, writing that the record "sadly reflects an abuse of prosecuting power." Abrego Garcia issued a statement saying he was grateful that "justice has taken a step forward." The dismissal increases scrutiny of Justice Department charging decisions and follows public comments by administration officials when the charges were first announced last year.

基尔马尔·阿布雷戈·加西亚和民权倡导者都从法官的驳回中受益，该驳回制止了法院认为可能出于报复的起诉，并加强了对选择性或政治影响的起诉决定的司法审查。
司法部和政府官员在法院发现证据表明存在报复性起诉并批评了错误驱逐的处理方式后，声誉和法律都受到了审查。
