After a month of searching, man learns from NBC News that DHS sent his brother to El Salvador (NBC News)

“For 40 days, his family has been waiting to hear his fate,” LULAC CEO Juan Proaño said.

Finally, on Tuesday, an answer. The Department of Homeland Security confirmed to NBC News that Adrián had, in fact, been deported — to El Salvador.

The news “saddens me a lot” and “shattered me,” Alejandro said after he heard about his brother’s whereabouts from NBC News.

DHS didn't respond when it was asked whether Adrián was sent to CECOT, the mega-prison in El Salvador. But Alejandro fears that's the case, given the many Venezuelans who were sent to CECOT from Texas a few days after he was detained.
