Attorneys for Kilmar Abrego Garcia asked a federal judge on Thursday to bar Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Attorney General Pam Bondi from making public comments about their client, arguing that remarks by senior Trump administration officials are prejudicing his ongoing case.
In a 15-page motion filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, Abrego Garcia's legal team said officials have engaged in "highly prejudicial, inflammatory and false statements," including allegations that he is tied to the MS-13 gang, a claim he denies.
