Target USA -- Episode 187: Congress gets involved in attempts to free an American from a Russian prison
On the prior episode, we got news that Paul Whelan -- who's being held in a Russian prison on espionage charges -- had been injured and had complained about rough treatment by guards. Since news from his family about his worsening condition has gained widespread attention, it seems as though Congress has taken a deeper interest in getting him out of there. Elizabeth Whelan, Paul Whelan’s sister, joins us for an unvarnished, candid interview about the hard road to get America to sit up and take notice of his case.
