‘Maryland man’ Kilmar Abrego Garcia exposed in police records as ‘violent’ repeat wife beater
A now-deported illegal alien accused of being an MS-13 gang member that was living illegally in Maryland has a record of being a «violent» repeat wife beater, according to court records filed in a Prince George’s County, Maryland, district court by his wife.
Fox News obtained the written domestic violence allegations filed in court against 29-year-old Kilmar Abrego Garcia by his wife, Jennifer Vasquez, in 2021.
In the filing, written in Vasquez’s own handwriting, she alleges Abrego Garcia repeatedly beat her, writing: «At this point, I am afraid to be close to him. I have multiple photos/videos of how violent he can be and all the bruises he [has] left me.»
Vasquez alleged that Abrego Garcia punched and scratched her on her eye, leaving her bleeding. He also allegedly threw her laptop on the floor.

She wrote that on another day, Abrego Garcia got angry again, started yelling, and ripped her shirt and shorts off before grabbing her arm and leaving marks.
Vasquez recalled two times in 2020 that Abrego Garcia hit her.
«In November 2020, he hit me with his work boot,» she wrote. «In August 2020, he hit me in the eye leaving a purple eye.»
Additionally, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released court documents regarding Abrego Garcia, which cast further doubt on the Democrats’ narrative about his innocence.
DHS released new documents this week, which it says definitively proves Abrego Garcia, who was deported to the El Salvadoran mega prison «Terrorism Confinement Center» (CECOT) last month, is a member of the notorious MS-13 gang.
According to a Prince George’s County Police Department interview sheet shared with Fox News by DHS, local police discovered Abrego Garcia during a murder investigation. Police found him loitering in a Home Depot parking lot with other known MS-13 gang members in possession of illicit drugs in 2019.

The police department’s Gang Unit MS-13 Intelligence Squad conducted an interview with Abrego Garcia and contacted a «past proven and reliable source» who identified him as an active member of MS-13 with the «Westerns» clique, with the rank of «Chequeo» and the moniker of «Chele.»
The news comes as Democrats clamor for the return of Abrego Garcia, who they say was «wrongly deported» to a maximum-security prison in his home country as part of the Trump administration’s efforts to crack down on illegal migrant crime.
Last week, the Supreme Court upheld a lower court’s decision ordering the Trump administration to arrange Abrego Garcia’s return. The court required the «government to ‘facilitate’ Abrego Garcia’s release from custody in El Salvador and to ensure that his case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to El Salvador.»
The Trump administration agreed to clear any administrative obstacles keeping Abrego Garcia from returning to the U.S., but Attorney General Pam Bondi has said that returning him is «up to El Salvador. If they want to return him. That’s not up to us.»

This has caused outrage among Democrats, many of whom have begun referring to him as a «Maryland man» who was wrongly deported. Some have even suggested he was kidnapped by the Trump administration.
«Kilmar Abrego Garcia was wrongly deported to El Salvador as part of the Trump Administration’s government-funded kidnapping rampage,» Rep. Maxwell Frost, D-Fla., posted on X. «He is rotting away in a foreign prison where his life is in danger. We need to go there now to make sure he’s okay.»
On Wednesday, Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., flew to El Salvador to visit Abrego Garcia in prison and work to secure his release. His trip has been criticized by many, including the mother of Rachel Morrin, a 39-year-old Maryland mother who was raped and murdered by a Salvadoran illegal immigrant in 2023.
«To have a senator from Maryland who didn’t even acknowledge, or barely acknowledge, my daughter and the brutal death that she endured, leaving her five children without a mother and now a grandbaby without a grandmother so that he can use my taxpayer money to fly to El Salvador to bring back someone that’s not even an American citizen. Why does that person have more rights than I do, or my daughter, or my grandchildren? I don’t understand this,» she said.
BONDI DEFIANT, SAYS ABREGO GARCIA WILL STAY IN EL SALVADOR ‘END OF THE STORY’

On Wednesday, the Department of Homeland Security doubled down, saying Abrego Garcia has a «history of violence and was not the upstanding ‘Maryland Man’ the media has portrayed him as.»
DHS shared court filings in which Abrego Garcia’s wife, Jennifer Vasquez, sought a domestic violence restraining order against him, claiming he «punched, scratched, and ripped off her shirt.»
And a 2019 DHS interview document shared with Fox News shows Abrego Garcia admitted to being in the U.S. illegally and claimed to have «walked across the desert for many days entering illegally into the United States near McAllen, Texas on or about March 25, 2012.»
As a result, Abrego Garcia was marked as eligible for deportation in 2019.

A federal immigration court in Baltimore further determined Abrego Garcia was not eligible for release because he «failed to meet his burden of demonstrating that his release from custody would not pose a danger to others, as the evidence shows that he is a verified member of MS-13.»
The court held that «the fact that a ‘past, proven, and reliable source of infonnation [sic]’ verified the Respondent’s gang membership, rank, and gang name is sufficient to support that the Respondent is a gang member» and that Abrego had «failed to present evidence to rebut that assertion.»
«Kilmar Abrego Garcia is not a ‘Maryland Man’—he is an MS-13 gang member involved in human trafficking who entered the United States illegally,» DHS posted on X. «His deportation to El Salvador was always going to be the end result.»
DHS bashed Van Hollen for advocating Abrego Garcia’s release, saying the senator «has done more to bring a MS-13 gang member, human trafficker and illegal alien back to Maryland than he has to help keep his American constituents safe or advocate for the victims of these vicious gangs like MS-13.»
«While Sen. Van Hollen and the mainstream media peddle a sob story about a brutal MS-13 gang member, Secretary Noem stands with the victims of illegal alien crime,» said DHS. «We hear far too much about the gang members and criminals’ sob stories and not enough about their victims.»
DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin posted some more details about his arrest, saying, in addition to being apprehended with other MS-13 members, he was found with «rolls of cash and drugs» and «wearing what is effectively MS-13’s uniform.»

Speaking with Fox News on Monday, McLaughlin said Abrego Garcia is «exactly where he belongs, home in El Salvador.»
«The media would love for you to believe that this is some media darling, that he is just some Maryland father, but Osama bin Laden was also a father, and yet he wasn’t a good guy, and they are actually both terrorists,» she added. «He should be in this El Salvador prison, prison for terrorists, and I hope he will remain there.»

Jewish leader predicts violent future for NYC residents if Mamdani wins in November: ‘Real concern’
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A New York City Jewish leader is speaking out about the possibility of a Zohran Mamdani term as mayor of New York City, telling Fox News Digital he is concerned about the safety of Jewish residents, as well as all New Yorkers.
Scott Feltman, executive vice president of the One Israel Fund, told Fox News Digital that the Jewish community in the country’s largest city is «not against» a Muslim or any person of faith running for office, but what they do oppose is candidates that «align themselves with nefarious actors» like Hamas or Hezbollah.
«He was just recorded at a local mosque where the Imam of that mosque has basically called for the death of IDF soldiers and praised the efforts of Hamas,» Feltman said. «So that’s what we’re opposed to, and it’s a very, very real serious concern.»
Feltman pointed to the rise of antisemitic attacks in recent years, particularly in New York City, which he says has «created a certain trepidation in the Jewish community and having this particular candidate now making such inroads» is a «real concern.»
UNEARTHED MAMDANI CLIP REVEALS HOW HIS UPBRINGING MADE HIM OPEN TO BEING CALLED ‘RADICAL,’ SOCIALIST

Two Israeli embassy staffers were killed in Washington, D.C., earlier this year by a man shouting «free Palestine» around the same time that an Egyptian man targeted a pro-Israel demonstration, killing one person and injuring several others, in Boulder, Colorado.
«I know that every single day I fear for my own staff knowing that our organization has been called out by this candidate, and we have no idea, you know, who’s following him and what their interests and what their actions may be. So it is a real serious concern.»
Mamdani, along with actress Cynthia Nixon, called out the One Israel Fund earlier this month in a post Feltman responded to with an article in American Thinker.
«When you go out and you align yourselves with terminology like globalize the intifada, which is basically a euphemism for kill Jews all over the world, that’s what it is, the intifada was basically a movement in Israel 25 years ago to destroy the state of Israel and didn’t discriminate against civilian or military personnel,» Feltman told Fox News Digital.

«And when you want to globalize that, the messaging is very clear to the people who are listening and following and that has put many people in the Jewish community, if not all of us, on notice and has created the feeling of genuine concern. I’m concerned for New York City in general. It’s not just the Jewish community. His platform of defunding the police and basically offering all kinds of free things to people, which I don’t think he can even accomplish, even though he keeps doubling down on the rhetoric, but just defunding the police puts everyone here in jeopardy.»
Mamdani has been widely criticized for his initial failure to condemn the phrase «globalize the intifada», which many Jewish people view as a call for violence. Mamdani eventually walked back his initial reluctance by saying he discourages people from using the phrase and told business leaders he would not use it.

Feltman referred to Mamdani as a «social media darling» and complimented the way he has been able to mobilize voters but said, ultimately, while discussing his rise, that the education system has done a «tremendous injustice to our children, especially on the university level where we see antisemitism exploding exponentially.»
Fox News Digital reached out to Mamdani’s campaign for comment.

UN court rules wealthy nations pay up for climate change damages in controversial global ruling
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The United Nations’ highest court on Wednesday ruled that wealthy countries must comply with their commitments to curb fossil fuels and pollution or risk being held financially liable by nations hit the hardest by climate change.
The 15-member U.N. International Court of Justice said that treaties compel rich nations to curb global warming and that the countries were also responsible for the actions of companies under their jurisdiction or control, Reuters reported.
«States must cooperate to achieve concrete emission reduction targets,» Judge Yuji Iwasawa said at The Hague. «Greenhouse gas emissions are unequivocally caused by human activities which are not territorially limited.»

Failure to do so could result in «full reparations to injured states in the form of restitution, compensation and satisfaction provided that the general conditions of the law of state responsibility are met,» the report states.
In response to the ruling, White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers told Fox News Digital that «as always, President Trump and the entire Administration is committed to putting America first and prioritizing the interests of everyday Americans.»
U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the court opinion affirms that Paris climate agreement goals need to be the basis of all climate policies.

«This is a victory for our planet, for climate justice, and for the power of young people to make a difference,» he said. «The world must respond.»
Wednesday’s ruling was hailed by a number of small nation states.
«I didn’t expect it to be this good,» said Ralph Regenvanu, the climate minister for the Pacific island nation of Vanuatu.
