Hi, everybody. It's 4 o'clock in New York. We come on the air with breaking news. A federal grand jury has indicted Kilmar Abrago Garcia. He is the Maryland man and Salvadoran National who was deported by the Trump administration in violation of a court order. He is now being charged with two counts, conspiracy to unlawfully transport

illegal aliens for financial gains and unlawful transportation of illegal aliens for financial

gains. That is according to a copy of the indictment obtained by NBC News. Other news

0:35.0

organizations are also reporting that Abrago Garcia is returning home to the

0:39.1

United States to face those two charges. We should note NBC News has not confirmed that piece of the

report. An attorney for Kilmar-Abrego-Garcia is reacting to the reporting by saying this, quote,

Pam Bondi will hold a press conference. He has, we actually can confirm now that he has

landed in the United States. So knowing that, we are going to listen

into Pambani for a minute.

...to commit alien smuggling in violation of Title V, Title V, 24. We want to thank President

1:54.8

Buckele for agreeing to return Abrago Garcia to the United States. Our government presented El Salvador with an arrest

warrant, and they agreed to return him to our country. We're grateful to President Buckele

2:09.7
