> According to who? Why do you think this is somehow the case?

Bukele says he doesn't forsee ever releasing anyone from CEDOT and has specifically ruled out doing so in this case. Trump says he's powerless to get him released.

> In what scenario does indefinite detention make any realistic sense even for the best-case scenario of its intended purpose i.e. rightfully-deported violent criminals?

Slave labor, which is what the people in CEDOT are being used for, again per their own president.

> Do you honestly think the US is actually sending anyone to indefinite detention who has not received a life sentence in court?

Yes! That's the whole problem!
