## Resource

A federal judge has thrown out the Trump administration’s criminal, immigrant-smuggling case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia, ruling that the prosecution was “vindictive” retaliation against the Salvadoran immigrant for winning a high-profile challenge to his deportation from the U.S. “The evidence before this Court sadly reflects an abuse of prosecuting power,” U.S. District Judge Waverly Crenshaw wrote Friday as he granted Abrego Garcia's request to dismiss the case. Glenn says: not only did Abrego Garcia win - the rule of law, and the United States Constitution also won as well.
