Soldiers for Sacrifice, with Nick Slatten

July 06, 2022 • Zac Benton • Season 1 • Episode 1

Nick Slatten was working for Black Water in 2007 when he found himself in a gun fight in Baghdad Iraq. After two failed attempts the federal government in 2014 wrongfully convicted Nick of Voluntary Manslaughter and sentenced him to life in prison without the possibility of parole. However in 2020 President Trump gave him a full pardon and sent him home. Today Nick and I are meeting to discuss another soldier named Calvin Gibbs who was wrongfully convicted of 3 counts of murder and sentenced to life in prison. The special timing of this episode is that tomorrow, July 7th, is Calvin's first parole hearing. Please listen and share this discussion to help get the word out about Calvin so we can get him back home to his family.
