121: The FBI Accused This Detransitioned Doctor of Being a Russian Spy. The Charges Were Dismissed. | Dr. James Henry
He was six months into his medical transition when he met the woman who would become his wife. She was a volunteer at Walter Reed. She was born in the Soviet Union, from a family of Armenian Orthodox priests, and finishing medical school to become an anesthesiologist. They went to the Kennedy Center as friends. Three months later, they were engaged. He stopped his hormones. They had children. He detransitioned . Then the FBI showed up. In Part 2 of this two-part conversation, Dr. James Henry picks up where Part 1 left off — with the story of how he met his wife Anne, how the Eastern Orthodox faith reshaped his understanding of God and the church, and how the Department of Justice accused him and his wife of being Russian spies. The charges were ultimately dismissed with prejudice after the DOJ was caught lying to the judge. He was never convicted. But the damage to his career, his family, and his reputation has been significant. In this conversation you will hear: How he met his wife Anne at Walter Reed while still six months into his medical transition Why meeting her was the turning point that made him stop hormones and pursue marriage and children His wife's Eastern Orthodox background — born in the Soviet Union, from generations of Armenian priests How Eastern Orthodoxy views the church as a hospital, not a courtroom — and why that changed him How the FBI entrapment began — his wife's email to the Russian embassy and the agents who posed as Russian intelligence Why the charges of being a Russian spy were dismissed with prejudice after the DOJ was caught in multiple lies How the indictment has blocked him from working in the military medical system despite the dismissal His oldest son, who still believes his father is a Russian spy and hasn't seen his brothers in three years His current medical practice — internal medicine, acupuncture, and GLP-1 weight loss medicine in Maryland A direct word to parents of children who are transitioning: there are other ways How to reach Dr. Henry — through Janet Boynes Ministries as liaison Don't limit God.
