Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s wife accused of dating ‘gang member’ by ex-boyfriend, who feared for his children’s lives

The wife of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the illegal immigrant alleged to be wrongfully removed from the United States, was accused by a former lover of dating a gang member, newly unearthed documents show.

Abrego Garcia’s wife, Jennifer Vasquez Sura, has argued that he is not a member of MS-13, a gang from El Salvador, despite previous indications by law enforcement.

As reported by New York Post’s Jennie Taer, new documents have been uncovered that showed the father of two of Vasquez Sura’s children accused her of dating a gang member in a court petition in 2018.

The ex-lover, named Edwin Trejo Ramos, filed a motion and affidavit for an emergency hearing for custody in Prince George’s County Circuit Court in Maryland.

The motion was against Vasquez Sura and alleged in broken English that she “try to kill herself” and left their kids with an 11-year-old babysitter.

In more broken English, Ramos said that his kids’ lives were in danger because Vasquez Sura was “dating a gang member.”

Underneath that claim, Ramos said he knew the facts to be true because he “was there, and the police was there too.”

Abrego Garcia and Vasquez Sura reportedly met in 2016 and moved in together in 2018. While the timeline of the relationship suggests the petition could have referred to Abrego Garcia, that fact has not be confirmed.

According to the New York Post, Ramos is currently incarcerated in Maryland.

Democrats have argued that Abrego Garcia was wrongfully deported, partially on the basis that he was not and is not a member of MS-13.

Police reports from 2019 dispute this, as that March, Abrego Garcia was detained with three other men in a Home Depot parking lot while looking for day labor work. As reported by Fox Baltimore, the men were arrested and questioned about gang ties.

A Hyattsville City police officer recognized one of the men as a known member of MS-13, and the local gang unit said they had “reasonable suspicion” that the men were involved in gang activity.

“Detectives had reasonable suspicion, based upon their training and experience, three of the four men, including Kilmar Abrego Garcia, displayed traits associated with MS-13 gang culture,” a statement from the Prince George’s County Police Department read.

The report also stated that Abrego Garcia was wearing gang clothing that “represents that they are a member in good standing with MS-13.”

A “reliable source of information” said Abrego Garcia was a member of the “Westerns” clique of the gang from upstate New York.

Abrego Garcia has denied the allegations, and he and his wife married while he was in custody in June 2019.

Despite Abrego Garcia being in the United States illegally, his supporters point to a stay order that kept him in the country in 2019.

Per Lawfare Media, immigration Judge David Jones ruled in October 2019 that Abrego Garcia should not be sent back to El Salvador due to a credible fear of persecution, as Abrego Garcia claimed a violent Salvadoran gang, Barrio 18, was extorting money from his family.

A long series of claims exists about Abrego Garcia’s alleged persecution from the other gang, but the Trump administration has claimed that Barrio 18 is no longer a threat in El Salvador due to the crackdown on gang culture in the country. The administration has also affirmed that Abrego Garcia is an illegal immigrant and has no right to stay in the country, either.

At the same time, the administration has pointed out that the tattoos on Abrego Garcia’s knuckles are alleged to be MS-13 code.

‘After surviving domestic violence in a previous relationship, I acted out of caution …’

In 2021, Vasquez Sura filed a temporary protective order against Abrego Garcia that claimed he punched and scratched her, which left her bleeding. She alleged that her husband later ripped her shorts and shirt, gave her a “purple eye” in August 2020, and hit her with his work boot in November 2020.

“After surviving domestic violence in a previous relationship, I acted out of caution after a disagreement with Kilmar by seeking a civil protective order in case things escalated,” Vasquez Sura said in a statement. “We were able to work through this situation privately as a family, including by going to counseling.”

She added, “Our marriage only grew stronger in the years that followed. No one is perfect, and no marriage is perfect.”

During a recent interview, Vasquez Sura refused to answer a question about the protective order.
