A federal judge ruled that Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Salvadoran national mistakenly deported by the Trump administration and who is now facing human smuggling charges, must be released from custody while awaiting trial.

In a ruling on Sunday evening, U.S. Magistrate Judge Barbara Holmes said the Justice Department “failed to meet its burden of showing a properly supported basis for detention on grounds that Abrego poses and irremediable danger to the community or is likely not to appeal.”
