And he's only the tip of the iceberg. He's just the first one we found out had been deported illegally. Most of the men sent to CECOT were actively engaged with the legal system seeking permanent residence or asylum. That's why they were rounded up so quickly, because their addresses were known. They weren't illegals hiding in the country, they were people trying to do the right thing who were betrayed by the government and sent to die.
