Abrego Garcia's wife said she had to move to a safe house after DHS posted her address

Jennifer Vasquez Sura, the wife of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, said she and her children have been moved to a safe house after the Department of Homeland Security posted a court document on social media that included their home address.

“I don’t feel safe when the government posts my address, the house where my family lives, for everyone to see, especially when this case has gone viral and people have all sorts of opinions,” Vasquez Sura told The Washington Post in an interview published Tuesday.

As the Trump administration released documents detailing its case against Abrego Garcia, a Maryland father with protected status who officials admitted was mistakenly deported to El Salvador, DHS last week posted a copy of a civil protective order granted to his wife in 2021.

“Kilmar Abrego Garcia had a history of violence and was not the upstanding ‘Maryland Man’ the media has portrayed him as,” the agency wrote in a post on X.

The family’s home address and other personal information about the couple was not redacted. The Department of Homeland Security told MSNBC that the documents it posted are publicly accessible.

She didn't follow through and dropped it. Stuff like this happens sometimes in moments of stress.
