From A Venezuelan Jail To The White House All In One Day



FOX News: Utah man incarcerated in Venezuela jail to be released, Trump says

A Utah man who has been incarcerated in a Venezuelan jail since 2016 is set to be released, U.S. officials said Saturday.

Joshua Holt, 26, has been jailed in Venezuela after he traveled to the South American country in the summer of 2016 to marry Thamara Candelo, whom he met on a website for Mormon singles.
