Most of us don't think much of our occassional and often critical comments on social media such as Twitter. But not in Saudi Arabia where 38 year-old Abdulrahman Al-Sadhan has been sentenced to 20 years in a Saudi prison. Delmarva Public Media's Don Rush talked with his sister Areej Al-Sadhan about her brother and efforts to get him released.

Don Rush is the News Director and Senior Producer of News and Public Affairs at Delmarva Public Media. An award-winning journalist, Don reports major local issues of the day, from sea level rise, to urban development, to the changing demographics of Delmarva.
