Summary

Jerce Reyes Barrios, a Venezuelan soccer player, was deported to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act after U.S. authorities mistook his soccer logo tattoo for a gang symbol.

Barrios legally entered the U.S. in 2024 and was accused of being a Tren de Aragua gang member.

His attorney argued the tattoo resembled Real Madrid’s logo and provided evidence of his clean record.

Despite a court order blocking such deportations, Barrios was sent to El Salvador, and his current whereabouts are unknown.
