Brittney Griner was recently sentenced to 10 years in prison after caught carrying illegal substances through Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport. The former Olympic champion was travelling to participate with the UMMC Ekaterinburg team. After four months of detention the authorities finally decided to make her sentencing official.
Now the WNBA player will serve time in a Russian detention colony. There she will be made to work to earn wage and get basic necessities to survive. Russian authorities claim that it is not the ideal place to serve time and hope that the federal officers in charge send her to a tame camp.
On the brighter side, Russian made confirmation on the rumors that hinted a prisoner swap. The Unidted States Administration led by Joe Biden have agreed to swap convicted illegal arms dealer Viktor “the merchant of death” Bout for the Brittney Griner and former Marine Paul Whelan. The Phoenix Mercury star has only been able to communicate with her people via email and letters.
