Man deported to El Salvador under Alien Enemies Act because of soccer logo tattoo.

Jerce Reyes Barrios came to the U.S.-Mexico border legally through the CBP One app in September 2024 but has been accused of being a Tren de Aragua , or TdA, member and was detained at a facility under maximum security.

The tattoo in question showed a crown sitting on top of a soccer ball with a rosary and the word 'Dios' (God), according to attorney Linette Tobin .

A declaration from the tattoo artist confirmed it was similar to the Real Madrid logo, Tobin said.
