Federal magistrate judge Barbara Holmes on Sunday ruled MS-13 gang member and wife beater Kilmar Abrego Garcia should not be detained on his criminal charges.
Abrego Garcia will likely remain in custody on an ICE detainer.
โAs required by the Bail Reform Act, the Court has reviewed the evidence presented at the June 13 hearing and considered the partiesโ arguments and the Pretrial Services report. For the reasons detailed below, the governmentโs motion for detention is DENIED. Specifically, the Court finds that no detention hearing is authorized under the Bail Reform Act in this case because the government failed to prove that this case involves: (1) a minor victim within the meaning of ยง 3142(f)(1)(E); (2) a โserious riskโ that Abrego will flee, as required by ยง 3142(f)(2)(A); or, (3) a โserious riskโ that Abrego will obstruct justice or otherwise interfere with the integrity of this proceeding, as required by ยง 3142(f)(2)(B),โ the judge wrote in a 51-page memo.
Earlier this month Kilmar Abrego Garcia pleaded not guilty to human trafficking charges as and fought for his release pending trial.
Abrego Garcia appeared in a Nashville court clad in a red jumpsuit.
A federal grand jury in Tennessee recently indicted Kilmar Abrego Garcia for โtransporting undocumented migrants within the United States.โ
He was charged with one count of conspiracy to transport aliens and one count of unlawful transportation of undocumented aliens.
According to the indictment, Kilmar Abrego Garcia and co-conspirators from El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico and the US were trafficking illegal aliens from 2016 through 2025.

โIf convicted at trial, the defendant faces a maximum punishment of 10 yearsโ imprisonment for โeach alienโ he transported,โ the government said.
ABC News reported that according to the governmentโs motion for detention, an Abrego Garcia co-conspirator told the feds that Abrego Garcia was involved in the murder of a rival gang memberโs mother.
Last month Fox News obtained 2022 bodycam footage that shows Kilmar Abrego Garcia being caught human trafficking in Tennessee.
