Texas Department of Public Safety Presentation on Tren de Aragua Gang
Records from the Texas DPS in response to American Oversight’s request for communications containing key terms regarding mass deportation plans.
Records from the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) received in response to American Oversight’s request for communications containing key terms regarding mass deportation plans. These records include a presentation from September 2024 on Tren de Aragua and related identifiers recognized by DPS.
The presentation also includes slides focused on individuals that have since been sent to the El Salvador prison Centro de Confinamiento del Terrorismo (CECOT) under the Alien Enemies Act. The photo of one of those individuals does not match the photo of the man eventually sent to CECOT in the spring of 2025, raising serious concerns that Francisco García Casique was sent to CECOT based on incorrect records.
