Trevor Reed’s nearly three-year imprisonment in Russia has ended.
“He’s been detained and convicted on evidence that is laughable,” U.S. Ambassador John Sullivan said in 2020.For years before Reed was released, his situation did not look hopeful. He fell ill in prison and geopolitics loomed.
The Reeds had pressed Biden administration officials to think creatively, for example by supporting a swap like the one that happened Wednesday, though they said the reaction had been cool. “If this becomes long and drawn out, and they take over Ukraine, then the Western countries and the United States are going to be at odds with Russia for a long time,” Joey Reed said in the March interview. “That could lead to additional charges against our son, if he lives, and keep him there indefinitely, which is not uncommon in Russia.”
Trevor’s parents said they'd spent Tuesday cleaning his room in anticipation of his return, making sure his bed was cleared of paperwork and other clutter so he’d have a place to sleep.
