Update...Brittney Griner trial: Russian court hands down verdict, sentence in WNBA star's case

Griner said Russia had begun to feel like home to her, so I guess we should say, "welcome home". Enjoy your stay. Of course we all know sleepy Joe will do something stupid and get her released so she can run back to the country she hates and further show us her hate.

Brittney Griner, an American basketball superstar and Olympic gold medalist, learned her fate in a Russian court after she pleaded guilty to a drug charge last month.

A Russian judge convicted Griner of drug possession and drug smuggling and sentenced her to 9 years in prison. She was also fined one million rubles, the equivalent of about $16,400.

Griner, 31, appeared in a courtroom in Khimki, just outside Moscow. She issued an apology ahead of her verdict and sentencing as prosecutors pushed for a 9.5-year sentence.

Desperation met stupidity on the corner of bad luck and despair, and the democratic party was born.
