'Once they said I was released, all I could think about was getting my boys in my hand,' Andrew Harrison said.
A Gilbert father is back home, after he spent the recent years in a Mexican prison."Once they said I was released, all I could think about was getting my boys in my hand, my 3 boys," said Andrew Harrison.In May 2022, Harrison and his family were heading to Mexico for vacation when they were randomly selected for a vehicle search."Lo and behold, found the guns in there right away," said Harrison's father, Tony, in January 2023. "He was detained.
The fiancée was eventually released, but Harrison was arrested and thrown into prison to await trial."The charges were to prove that I was guilty of bringing firearms to do harm to someone in Mexico," Harrison said. "Our argument was basically to prove that I was not here to bring firearms to Mexico for any type of harm."Eventually, things turned a corner for Harrison.
