Episode notes
Judge Rejects DOJ Witnesses' Credibility
- Judge Zinnis found DOJ witnesses lacked credibility and described their testimony as effectively worth zero.
- That credibility failure shifts the burden onto the government to justify sending Kilmer Abrego Garcia to Liberia instead of Costa Rica.
Detention, Parallel Cases, And Removal Plans
- Abrego Garcia has been detained while facing what Michael Popok calls a fabricated Tennessee criminal case and parallel civil litigation.
- He offered to go to Costa Rica but was reportedly blocked and instead slated for removal to Liberia as alleged retaliation.
Missing Final Order Undermines Removal
- Judge Zinnis emphasized there is no final removal order from years ago, meaning the administrative process may still be open.
- That procedural gap undercuts the government's authority to remove Abrego Garcia and strengthens his defense.
