(CN) — A federal judge on Friday dismissed the Justice Department’s criminal case against Maryland man Kilmar Ábrego Garcia, finding the government’s case was vindictive and purely in retaliation for his challenging his wrongful deportation.
U.S. District Judge Waverly Crenshaw Jr., who has presided over the case in the Middle District of Tennessee, granted Ábrego García’s motion to dismiss an indictment charging him with conspiring to transport immigrants between 2016 and 2025 and with transporting immigrants during a Nov. 30, 2022, traffic stop.
