Ex-Marine Jon Hammar Released from Mexico Prison and Back in the USA

Jon Hammar will be home for Christmas …

Former US Marine Jon Hammar has finally been released from a Mexican prison after spending four months being held on trumped up charges. A defense lawyer said Mexican authorities determined there was no intent to commit a crime. Gee, ya think? Thanks to some in the media, like Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity, for making this disgraceful and shameful false imprisonment front and center to guilting Obama, the State Department and Mexico to release Jon Hammer. Isn’t it amazing how Mexican authorities arrest individuals who do not even really commit a crime, yet the US just looks the other way when it comes to Mexicans who illegally enter the US, gun or no gun.

The ordeal for Jon Hammar Jr., who languished under deplorable conditions in a violent Mexican prison for four months, is finally over.

Jon Hammar Sr. has confirmed that his 27-year-old son, a Marine combat veteran, is back on U.S. soil and with him in a rented car in Brownsville, Texas.

Hammar Sr. said his son was released from the notorious CEDES prison at 8 p.m. local time and made it back across the bridge between Matamoros, Mexico and Brownsville, Texas by around 8:30 p.m.

Thank God he is home.
