The Justice Department floated sending Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Liberia, its latest effort to remove the mistakenly deported man amid their ongoing prosecution of him.
The Friday court filing said the West African nation has agreed to take him and argued that the country fit Abrego Garcia’s criteria.
“Although Petitioner has identified more than twenty countries that he purports to fear would persecute or torture him if he were removed there, Liberia is not on that list,” DOJ wrote.
The Trump administration has explored a series of countries as possible deportation destinations after wrongly sending Abrego Garcia to his native El Salvador. An immigration judge in 2019 blocked him from being sent there due to gang threats against his family.
