Summary
U.S. immigration authorities deported Andrys, a 23-year-old gay Venezuelan makeup artist, to El Salvador’s CECOT prison without due process, despite a court order blocking his removal. Authorities falsely accused him of gang affiliation based on tattoos.
Andrys, seeking asylum, was sent to the notorious 40,000-capacity prison, where detainees face harsh conditions and lack legal recourse.
His lawyer, Lindsay Toczylowski, expressed concern for his safety and criticized the forced deportation as a human rights violation.
El Salvador’s president celebrated the deportation deal, which grants $6 million annually from the U.S.
These 200 plus individual have been villainized so badly that the general public is eating up the propaganda and allowing the government to strip the public of rights and due process. The shaved heads, chains and prison uniform solidify this perception.
My own parents who are immigrant’s themselves think they are the “good ones”
