Joey Reed said the Texas senator did not do enough to free his son, a Marine, who was held in Russia for three years until he was released in 2022.
WASHINGTON — Two years ago, Joey Reed excoriated U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz for not doing more to help free his son Trevor, who was being held captive in Russia. Now his son is free, and Joey Reed is working to help kick Cruz out of office. Reed announced his support for Democrat U.S. Rep. Colin Allred — who is running against Cruz — in an ad released Thursday morning. “When my son Trevor Reed was detained by the Russian police, he was given nine years. We were frantic.
” In a statement to the Texas Tribune responding to Allred’s latest ad, Cruz spokesperson Macarena Martinez said Cruz was “incredibly relieved for Trevor and his family when he was released from wrongful detention in Russia and safely returned home. “Senator Cruz has been a leader throughout his Senate career in fighting for the return of unjustly held Americans,” Martinez’s statement continued.
