Asylum Seeker Deported to Mega-Prison for Autism Awareness Tattoo
Venezuelan migrant Neri Jose Alvarado Borges was deported from Texas to El Salvador’s dangerous Terrorism Confinement Center after immigration authorities mistook his autism awareness tattoo for gang affiliation. Friends and family claim he was denied asylum despite presenting documentation, with officials citing the tattoo as evidence of ties to the Tren de Aragua gang. Borges, who worked at a Texas bakery, was apprehended in February and held at Bluebonnet Jail before deportation. This incident follows similar controversial deportations based on misinterpreted tattoos and social media activity, raising concerns about due process violations.
