Very careless of her to not realize it might be a problem traveling with it to a totalitarian country.
Just stupid .
Even crossing state lines she should be careful.
But Russia?
Cmon man

We have had a few threads on this concept of being a foreigner using drugs or breaking laws in other countries.

Those with military service know this well. Back in the Seventies, you might do a port of call in Italy, and might see people doing drugs, and the people say “Oh, it isn’t a big deal, they have laws against it, but they don’t enforce them”, that kind of thing.

American Navy personnel would think it was okay, then find themselves in jail.

They don’t prosecute their own citizens, but foreigners are a completely different ball of wax.

They gave us the lecture, and a guy on our ship who was thrown in an Italian jail was still there nearly three years later, with no prospect of getting out.

I took those warnings very seriously.
