Griner was detained after Russian officials said they found vape cartridges containing oil derived from cannabis in her luggage at the Sheremetyevo airport near Moscow.

The offense could carry up to 10 years in prison.

Doesn't make much sense for her to post this on a public forum and ask for privacy. But none of it does.

Makes me want to throw up every time I read about a woman having a wife or a man a husband.

And the propaganda organs in this country have completely fallen in line with (actually joyously promote) this insanity.

When you travel, know the laws and obey them. I was in Colorado a few years back, tempted to sneak back a little of that Colorado cannabis but there was No Way I wanted to get busted outside Colorado holding a couple of joints. She broke their laws, if the Russian authorities are merciful and let her go she Should thank her lucky stars
