A legal filing submitted by the criminal defense attorneys for Kilmar Abrego Garcia on Thursday night asked U.S. District Court Judge Waverly Crenshaw to issue an order prohibiting Attorney General Pam Bondi, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, and other Trump administration officials from making "extrajudicial comments" about the case against the alleged human smuggler.
The motion specifically requested Crenshaw to prohibit the prosecutors, as well as "everyone in their supervisory chain," plus Bondi and Noem, "from making extrajudicial comments that pose a substantial likelihood of materially prejudicing this proceeding."
