<title> Topic: U.S. Citizens in Foreign Jails 

<desc> Description: 
Identify instances where U.S. citizens have been or 
are being held in foreign jails since the year 1900.  

<narr> Narrative: 
With International travel becoming more commonplace, 
many travelers, whether due to ignorance of the law or 
with criminal intent, are ending up in foreign jails.  
Of interest is the country involved, the reason for the seizure 
and jailing, and the sentence, if convicted.  U.S. intervention, 
if any, would also be of interest.
