Washington — A federal judge extended a deadline for the Justice Department to share any steps it's taken or intends to take to return a Maryland man mistakenly deported to El Salvador.
U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis ordered the Trump administration to give her information about Kilmar Abrego Garcia after the Supreme Court on Thursday reaffirmed her directive for the federal government to "facilitate" his release from Salvadoran custody.
Shortly after the Supreme Court issued its order, Xinis directed Homeland Security officials to provide Abrego Garcia's physical location and custodian status, what steps they have taken to facilitate his immediate return to the U.S. and what further steps the government will take and when to help with his return. She initially gave the department a deadline of 9:30 a.m. Friday but extended it by two hours after the Justice Department filed a motion to ask for an extension until next week.

When the charred remains of prominent commercial real estate attorney Gary Farris were discovered on a burn pile with a bullet lodged in a rib bone, detectives knew they were facing a homicide investigation. The crime scene was on a sprawling 10-acre property in Cherokee County, Georgia, where Gary Farris lived with his wife Melody and their son Scott.
