Brittany Griner got 9 years

[King Poetic]

Wouldn’t be in this trouble if WNBA was actually paying these chicks more than $30,000 a year and they wouldn’t have to go overseas and eat..

Plus these players really need to look at these other country laws when u go over there especially in Russia and china

 

[Jazzy B.]

Liberals and LGBT abandoned a gay black woman.

But y’all don’t want to have THAT conversation

 

[Sauce Mane]

Pretty sure this is due to tension between Russia and the west. Otherwise, Something would've been worked out.

WNBA doesn’t make enough to pay them like that. They are already heavily subsidized by the NBA.

 

[DJ Paul's Arm]

Can’t really feel sorry for her. I mean she should’ve been smart enough to google “is cannabis legal in Russia?” Before even booking the dam flight.

 

[doublecheese]

9 years in the gulag. Traffic the work WNBA brehs.

No one to blame here but herself. Don’t do drugs internationally where it’s illegal. No one else has jurisdiction with what they decide to do.

 

[HipHopStan]

Yeah, it was only weed, and she would've got less time, if any at all if she were a certain color, however you still got to abide by another country's law no matter how stupid they are or seem. Still, she’s getting a worse sentence than someone who smuggled 7 kilos of cocaine. This is

 

[tater]

I mean this is fukked up for sure, but weed isn't legal in Russia. Other countries don't play around with drugs. Y'all remember broke down palace?!

 

[KeysT]

So they gave her no leniency at all. That was the max sentence. Should've pled not guilty

If the US cuts a deal with her one of the conditions of a prisoner swap will be her admitting guilt. She probably was advised to just get it out of the way as time is of the essence with athletes.

 

[cornercommission2k12]

Depressing but I doubt she'll do even half that time.

Don't know about this one

Russia wants to trade her for a man they called the merchant of death. Prisoner swap sounds good to the ears of the BG supporters but not to the people in charge. Biden might have to charge her to the game unfortunately.

 

[Low End Derrick]

Do not travel to countries where youre not wanted.

Wasn’t she playing there?

 

[pcpking]

She played for that Russian team for 10 years doing the off season, she know the rules and didn't have no damn weed, they put that shyt on her right at the beginning of that war to use her a pawn.

Griner makes 200K a year, and she wouldn’t be in this trouble if she didnt put weed cartridges in her luggage. That wouldn’t fly at in airport in the US mic less around the world where most countries have stricter laws around marijuana.
