The Trump administration is now saying the mistaken deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to El Salvador was a "one-off mistake that the government conceded was an administrative error," a stance that stands contrast with previous statements made by officials.
The statement was made in the latest installment of the legal fight between Abrego Garcia and the Trump administration. The Maryland man is suing the administration over his wrongful deportation, while the government has filed human smuggling charges against Abrego Garcia.
