Democrat Senator Chris Van Hollen got roasted for celebrating a federal judge’s decision to drop the criminal case against MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
A federal grand jury in Tennessee previously indicted Kilmar Abrego Garcia for “transporting undocumented migrants within the United States.”
He was charged with one count of conspiracy to transport aliens and one count of unlawful transportation of undocumented aliens.
According to the indictment, Kilmar Abrego Garcia and co-conspirators from El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico and the US were trafficking illegal aliens from 2016 through 2025.
Read the indictment here.
A federal judge on Friday dismissed the criminal indictment against MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
Judge Waverly Crenshaw, an Obama appointee, granted Abrego Garcia’s motion to dismiss the human trafficking case for vindictive and selective prosecution in violation of the Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause.
Judge Crenshaw dismissed both counts and blasted the Trump Administration for targeting Garcia.
The Trump DOJ moved to appeal Judge Crenshaw’s decision.
Van Hollen called it a Constitutional win.
“Today, a federal judge determined what we’ve known all along, the Trump admin was engaged in a vindictive prosecution against Kilmar Abrego Garcia,” Van Hollen said.
“This is a win for all our rights & the Constitution,” he added.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is an El Salvadoran national who was illegally residing in Maryland. In 2019, an immigration judge ordered Abrego Garcia, an alleged member of the dangerous MS-13 gang, removed from the US.
Last year Van Hollen met with Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a wife beater and alleged MS-13 gang banger who was deported for illegally residing in Maryland – and YOU paid for his political stunt.
The corrupt Maryland Senator flew all the way to El Salvador for a photo op in his fight to smuggle deported MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia back to the US.
Van Hollen even sipped margaritas with Garcia.
