The DOJ said Thursday that it intends to try Kilmar Abrego Garcia on federal smuggling charges in Tennessee before it moves to deport him to a country that is not his native country of El Salvador.

A new federal court filing says Kilmar Abrego Garcia experienced "severe beatings" and "psychological torture" in a supermax prison in El Salvador.

A federal judge in Tennessee has ruled that Kilmar Abrego Garcia will stay in jail for now over concerns that he could be deported if he's released.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the man mistakenly deported to El Salvador earlier this year, faced a key hearing in Nashville on June 25.
