@Phil @jbouie @jeffjarvis Look. This is just pure sloppiness. You have no idea what I think about the grab bag of cases discussed in this piece. I haven't paid attention to most of them. I think that sending anyone on an indefinite term to a third-world prison no one has ever been released from is something the United States shouldn't do, and especially shouldn't do without due process. 1/

@Phil @jbouie @jeffjarvis I have no idea whether Kilmar Abrega Garcia is the saint his, um, wife seems to present him to be, or a vicious gang member and wife beater. Neither do you. Neither does Pam Bondi. If these allegations were prosecuted and, after vigorous defense if he proclaims innocence, he were convicted of crimes, that's be fine. None of us would have taken any notice of the case. 2/

@Phil @jbouie @jeffjarvis But you can't put a person in prison, let alone a prison no one is ever realeased from, without meeting a high burden of proof and severity. Life sentences in CECOT are probably impermissible under the 8th Amendment anyway, but even if it were run like a Norweigian prison, you'd need to prove a crime commensurate with a life sentence. /fin
