In this special Independence Day episode of The Wright Report, we journey back in time to July 4th, 1967, and share the poignant tale of Hugh Francis Redmond. Accused of being a CIA officer and subjected to a 15-year sentence in a Chinese prison, Redmond’s life and his cryptic disappearance remain shrouded in mystery. His letters from prison, his unwavering love for his family and country, and the circumstances leading to his alleged suicide form the heart of our narrative. This moving story is a tribute to Redmond’s sacrifice and embodies the spirit of patriotism.
