Trevor Reed’s nearly three-year imprisonment by Russia ended Wednesday when he walked off a Russian plane and onto an American one.
The Marine veteran’s release was half of an unexpected U.S.-Russia prisoner swap that came despite high tension between the two countries. It saw the U.S. turn over a convicted Russian drug trafficker for the 30-year-old Texan, who has maintained his innocence after being convicted on what a U.S. official decried as “laughable” evidence.

I'm glad he's coming home. But there are so many cautionary tales about traveling to foreign countries that aren't necessarily friendly with the US.

Know where you are at all times and the company that you keep. Sgt Reed, stated his story, he got drunk at party with his Russian girlfriend and does not remember anything else until he woke -up in a Russian jail.
