Kilmar Abrego
Kilmar Abrego is a 29-year-old Salvadoran who fled his home country to escape gang violence. After successfully reaching the United States in 2012, he worked as a laborer while anticipating the birth of his child. However, he was detained and transferred to a prison under the administration of President Bukele, despite having no criminal record or charges against him. His case highlights the ongoing issues surrounding immigration and deportation in the U.S., particularly under the Trump administration.
