Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), who infamously became criminal illegal alien Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s greatest champion, shared a sob story about a supposed “asylum seeker” named Ever Alvarenga Rios that later blew up in his face.
As WMAR reports, an attorney for Rios alleged that his client was driving in Highlandtown Thursday morning when agents supposedly “violently rear-ended” his vehicle and proceeded to take him into custody.
Rios was later hospitalized with injuries to his head, chest, back, and hands.
“I think this is probably the most egregious case that I’ve seen in terms of causing physical bodily injury to the person involved,” Rios’s attorney, Adam Crandell, said. “It’s disturbing, to say the least, that this is how ICE appears to be choosing to interact.”
Crandell went on to state that ICE agents are refusing to allow him or any other people to visit Rios.
Initially, we were told that it was a medical issue that he needed to be stabilized before he could accept visitors or any type of legal visit. Then the story changed and we were told today that there was an issue with the paperwork,” Crandell claimed. “Even more recently, I was told that so long as he remains hospitalized, ICE will not allow us access to him.”
On Saturday morning, Van Hollen took the opportunity to regurgitate Alvarenga’s attorneys’ talking points and to smear ICE agents as “endangering our communities and violating the Constitution.”
