  1. Is it because she is black and a Lesbian that we are barraged with her story. There are other Americans languishing in foreign prisons due to drug charges, . . . . where is their voice? They don't check a box would be my bet.

  2. Everyone that matters, in the U.S. and in Russia, has your back Brittney and is working to bring you home. Thanks To the Russian Team Director (Maxim Rybakov), Team Doctor (Anatoly Galabin), and Teammate (Evgenia Belyakova) for stepping up and letting the Russian court know Brittney's good character and great value to Russian athletics. UMMC Ekaterinburg club director Maxim Rybakov testified to Griner's upstanding character and her huge role in the success of the UMMC Ekaterinburg basketball club and Russian women's basketball. Griner's teammate Evgenia Belyakova told the court that Brittney is the leader of their team. And Anatoly Galabin stated that Griner has never tested positive for doping while playing for the team nor ever accused of such a thing. It's time to put respect on Brittney's name.

    But honestly, the Russian government knows it's the Last place to crack down on someone for using "illegal" substances when Russia's name is equated to a country that exports athletes to international competitions where they are often found violating international doping rules. The World Anti-Doping Agency technically excluded Russia from the 2020 Tokyo Olympics for breaking anti-doping rules via a state-sponsored system and being accused of manipulating drug test results.

  3. Doctor's note? 😅😂 Suuuuure, if this excuse was real she would have used it 5 months ago. Last news report said she packed in a hurry and forgot she was smuggling drugs into Russia! 🙄 BRITTNEY, MAYBE DON'T TAKE A KNEE DURING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM THEN BEG AMERICA FOR HELP! LET HER ROT!! See ya is 2032 Bee-otch 🇺🇸🎉🇺🇸

  4. 10 years of presence not enough for this American late b** she wanted to sit down for the flag and get what you get America don't want you here

  5. Folks she very young , think back when you were that age and the mistakes you made….cut her some slack….That girl is scared to death , get over it that she protested America , thats her right …Thats what America is about , the right to protest and speak out. Thats what makes us strong, we can voice what bothers us and still live/work/play in the same land…..God Bless America !

  6. Character witnesses? Brittany Griner has no character, poise, grace or humility. Being a lesbian black basketball player doesn’t mean squat in Russia. I hope they throw the book at her. She is disingenuous and spoiled. She is a terrible representative of America and I don’t care for her.

  7. Special privilege to her? What about me ? If a get detain? For who kwo reason there? Ahh I am no famos.. or rich… BLACK AND PROUD! but no famos… HIPOCRITES!

  8. Although African-Americans are disproportionately represented in the U.S. prison population for most offenses, racial disproportionality is most pronounced for drug offenses.

  9. Russia is a third world authoritarian shithole pretending to be a civilized society. Their rules and laws hold the same weight as those of barn animals

  10. ( she deserves the 10 years or something over the top harsh and ridiculous ?) Most people say that until they think of it as " their own son, daughter ,wife , mother , family , etc ,,then they start realizing the difference between the hard core law breaking crimes like murder , rape , robber, serial killer, etc , and now they see the ridiculous harshness of sentencing their mom or son to 10 years for a traffic violation or oil ,,,, sure there are punishments of different level and responsibility ,,, but that would place everyone commenting , including you and your children behind bars for 10 plus years for any violation that noone caught them doing ,,everyone is quick to throw a heaviest hard stone at others who got caught as the lady caught in adultery , but ,as Jesus said , " him that is without sin cast the first stone " then they thought of their own lives and dropped the stone knowing they deserve the same punishment or the same mercy Jesus showed—– time of people deserve the fire of hell eternally and righteously from breaking gods law or word , but did God give you what you really deserved so harshly ? ,,blessed are the merciful , for they shall obtain mercy,, as it is written in:
    James 2:13
    “For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy"

  11. I hope she sees Russia's beautiful prisons. Her coming home soon would be a disgrace to America proving they're all hypocritical and self entitled

  12. She needs to take her punishment. Our government needs to stay out of this… SHE BROKE THE LAW! 😠 She's not special
