AI Summary:
Marc Fogel was arrested in August 2021 and is serving a 14-year prison sentence on drug charges. He was designated by President Joe Biden’s administration as wrongfully detained in December. His release follows a massive prisoner swap last August that resulted in the release of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich and corporate security executive Paul Whelan. Russian media reported that his name matches a U.S. Citizen interviewed in 2020 who said he was born in the Perm region in 1991 and adopted by an American couple at age 2. An engineer from Texas, Barnes was arrested in 2022 while visiting his sons in Russia, where their mother had taken them. He was convicted in June 2024 in Vladivostok of stealing and making threats against his girlfriend. Tater has been in custody awaiting trial on assaulting a law officer. At a September court hearing, he claimed he came to Russia to seek political asylum.
