Gustavo Cárdenas' years-long "nightmare" came to an end Tuesday night when he and another American citizen were freed from detention in Venezuela.
"This terrible situation has caused a lot of suffering and pain, much more than I can explain with my words," he said in a written statement following his release. "I got out of jail and got my freedom after about 1570 days of wrongful captivity. It was a very hard time marked by deep pain, but also by faith, hope, love, and survival."
