Jackson, Mich. (WKHM) — As Paul and Christy Akeo remain in a maximum-security Mexican prison over a dispute regarding credit card charges with the Palace Company, US Congressman Tim Walberg spoke on AM Jackson about efforts that are being taken at the federal level to bring them back.

The Akeos’ daughter and legal representation have claimed that the Akeos are being mistreated while in custody, a factor that is heightening pressure to return them to their home.

Congressman Walberg also spoke out on the topic of federal district judges ruling to halt the efforts of multiple executive orders signed by President Trump. Walberg believes these rulings will eventually be overturned, and that the judges are over-stepping their powers.
