While being held at the so-called Terrorism Confinement Center (Cecot) in El Salvador, Ábrego García and 20 other men “were forced to kneel from approximately 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM”, according to the court papers filed by his lawyers in the federal district court in Maryland.
Guards struck anyone who fell from exhaustion while kneeling, and during that time, “Ábrego García was denied bathroom access and soiled himself”, according to the filing.
Detainees were held in an overcrowded cell with no windows, and bright lights on 24 hours a day. They were confined to metal bunk beds with no mattresses.
- This is the stuff that Republicans get off on. They can't feel good unless they're making someone else suffer.
- This shit always starts with... we just gonna do bad guys, trust me bro... just murders and rapists
  then like clock work, system starts churning and machine is used gains the undesirables, criminal or not
We the world have failed this man.
- The people, or at least other countries, need a trained militia to combat ICE and other warmongers, as well as black ops folk to liberate certain VIPs. This shit should be prevented or combatted
