After spending eight years in Nicaragua, Jason Puracal had built his dream life. Then, in 2010, without any signs or warnings - everything changed. Jason was arrested by Nicaraguan authorities and charged with international money laundering and drug trafficking. Jason had no criminal history. There was no evidence against him. But that didn't matter. In August 2011, Jason was convicted and sentenced to 22 years in prison. This is Jason's story.
