Russia Will Hold Secret Trial for Evan Gershkovich: WSJ

Russia reportedly says it will try an American journalist in a secret proceeding. Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich has been detained in the country on espionage charges, which the United States government says are false, since March 2023. The news outlet reports his trial will start June 26, but will take place behind doors closed to the public and media. Inside Edition Digital���s Mara Montalbano has more.

Why is he being put in a glass box like a zoo animal

[CruzzzControl]

Should've been him instead of Brittney Griner

[liamwatson]

Why do they put defendants behind a glass door in court in Russia?

[RhaegarTargaryenst]

It's Russia. What did we expect? Ethical behavior?

[JONtheULTIMATE]

This 1 dude is just saying "cringe" lol

[Default-s]

If he only knew how to play basketball

[Alsbeginnerfitness]

He f, ed around and found out. If your traveling to Russian enjoy your trip, eat at restaurants, go grocery shopping, go to popular destinations. Don’t try to play with those people like this man did.

After what happened Alexei navalny I have no hope for this guy making it home😮

[slimfit]

He was tricked by the U.S. REGIME to go spying on RUSSIA for the CIA. Now, he’s on his own 😂😂😂

[dinnerwaltz]

He looks fine, he's smiling,
he doesn't look starved, he doesn't look tortured.

[RayTuttle-ofqd]

Sounds like he was in the wrong place at the wrong time !

[brianplunkett]

Surprised Rodman was even allowed to leave North Korea.

[abdul-malikmuhammad]

How about the U.S., hood this precedent for Julian Assange?😊

[suzyerichsen]

Sounds like many missing pieces. Why was he in Russia in the first place? Who would want to go to an eneny country on vacation?
Many big questions.

[alexhdz]

Didn’t we chose the trans basketball player instead of him? Oh yeah and they got the merchant of death?? Crazy lol

[SanFernandoValleyRose]

They will use him as a patsy I hope it does not end up like Navalny. They need to dissolve Putin.

[Thunder_Dome]

Russia has free press? Weird. I thought the press was government owned and operated.

[Animal_chin]

Looks like the dude from It's Always Sunny

[johnmack]

Sounds like he will get a fair trail 🤷‍♂
