Evan is free!!!
On Thursday, August 1, Evan was returned to U.S. custody, as part of the largest East-West prisoner swap since the Cold War. He was released from Russian prison alongside former Marine Paul Whelan and multiple other people who had been unjustly detained.
We are so, so relieved that Evan is free, and so grateful for your support over the past 16 months. #JournalismIsNotACrime
