She said USA was a terrible place, she should stay in Russia.

[antman]

So hilarious how she'd say America is horrible but reality hit her so hard when she did drugs in another country and got 10 years

[logang]

Ignorance is not an excuse full punishment should be enforced

[thesungodra]

People in the spotlight need to understand they are NOT above the law, no matter what country they visit.

[DeathByFishing]

Maybe next time she will think twice about smuggling drugs into a foreign country. Not one ounce of sympathy for her. Shouldn't have complained how bad America is and kneel for our anthem.

[sneezy]

I don't feel bad for Brittany griner at all, I remember her saying that america was a bad place, now she is asking for help, shit happens when you talk shit.

[TheHaratashi]

Why should she be freed? She committed a crime and should have to serve time like everyone else has to. That's called equality Griner!

[oldmanmob]

Play stupid games win stupid prizes. She shouldn't have gone to a different country and broke their laws.

[anyadrouin]

How do you forget you packed drugs I might forget my underwear when I pack but I’ve never forgotten I acted drugs! 😂😂😂

[jonredd]

How can the United States government officially declare her as wrongfully detained when she just plead guilty?!?!!

[piss-n-vinegar]

She took a knee, a protested her own country’s flag. I bet America is looking real good to her now…🤔

[carlosa.n]

They should release her only under the conditions she defeats DeMarcus Cousins on a one-on-one basketball game.

[jhonreydelacruz]

the prisoner exchange is bogus. The charges between the two is substantial

[JA]

In Texas possession of concentrated marijuana is a felony punishable by imprisonment of 2 to 20 years for amounts of 1 to 400 grams. Any amount greater than that is punishable by imprisonment of up to 99 years.

[cesdu]

Let that dude pay his punishment, if Russian or anybody brings drugs into the country they go to jail..

[tonygray]

Hopefully Russia will show some respect and change his name to Igor🤔

[glitterbaby]

She broke their law. She is not above the law. She should do time.

[voty]

I hope she gets prison time . Let her stay in Russia since she hated the USA .

[jeffreyrivers]

Good! Don't do drugs and break laws outside of the USA.

[DaveMiller]

It wasn't her first trip to Russia to play ball. She knew.
Time to pay the piper.
