Family of Marine veteran held in Russia says he's near death

Season 2026 Episode 163 | 6m 15s

The family of a U.S. Marine veteran imprisoned in Russia says his health is deteriorating and he may be on the brink of death. Robert Gilman was arrested in Russia in 2022 for allegedly hitting a Russian police officer. He was sentenced to four and a half years in prison, but that sentence has since been extended to a decade. Stephanie Sy spoke with Kieran Ramsey, Gilman’s advocate in the U.S.
