American tourist facing prison in Turks and Caicos over ammunition says he’s soaking up FaceTime with his kids back home – By Alex Sundby (CBS News) / April 29, 2024
An American tourist who’s facing over a decade behind bars in the Turks and Caicos islands after ammunition was found in his luggage said Monday he’s trying to FaceTime with his children back home as much as possible in case he ultimately goes to prison.
“I’ve been told that there’s, you know, quite a bit of restricted communication while you’re in prison, and so I’m just trying to soak up as much of that as I can,” Ryan Watson, a 40-year-old father of two from Oklahoma, told CBS News.
Watson is out on bail, but he said he can’t leave the country and has to check in at a local police station twice a week. He’s facing a potential mandatory minimum sentence of 12 years behind bars.
