You may have been right on target re. Kerwin Leal Estrada - not much to back up what the WH alleged, according to ProPublica:

I was updating my site earlier today, and wanted to post one pic where the detainees arrive back in Venezuela. I picked a basically random pic (well, I appreciated the gesture of the first guy in prayer and thanks) and when I looked closer, one of the guys was Andry. Some sort of serendipity 😀

One name on that list, Jhonnarty Pachecho Chirinos, looked familiar somehow, and this is where I saw it previously (listed together with Nixon Azuaje Perez who is confirmed as being at CECOT):

The government's claim has always been that those planes were already in the air. But that's only true for two of the three deportation planes. The third one took off *after* Judge Boasberg issued his order:

PS. (just realized I did not hit send other day when trying to respond to this comment) ... but, it looks like there's at least six 18/19 year-old Venezuelans at CECOT, probably more but there's insufficient info. for many prisoners (at least, they were 18 or 19 when sent there four months ago):

If there's any *tiny* silver lining to all this - people running CECOT realize most Venezuelans in there are not criminals and are treating them slightly better than the complete hell everyone else is subject to:

Another name that does not appear on any of the published flight logs to El Salvador, yet he is listed on a legal document from an attorney for some of the deportees (?) so assuming he's at CECOT ... I found source inadvertently while googling name of another deportee.

It's crazy to think that this singer (one of his music videos is linked below) is currently locked up in the CECOT mega-prison/concentration camp. Everything I've read shows he's not a criminal and he was in the U.S. legally ...

Just one of many innocent Venezuelans deported by Trump to the CECOT mega-prison in El Salvador. I've put together a website where I compile their stories:
