He just speaking on something he don’t know anything about.

I mean I don’t know everything but the easy shit to know is she’s not wrongfully imprisoned
 
Ugh...I'm tired of yall saying she's not wrongfully imprisoned when she's actually wrongfully imprisoned.

Being labeled wrongfully imprisoned in another country is not about breaking the law. It's about whether or not you are there for politically purposes...such as, you are imprisoned by an enemy nation over something insignificant like having less than a gram of hash oil, that normally would constitute a fine.

Americans in China and Russia with long ass prison citizens for basic shit, are considered wrongfully imprisoned because those are not our allies and they are known for giving Americans outrageous citizens that they don't give to their own for the same crime.



Israelis got their people out of Russian prison when an Israeli-American woman had 9 grams of cannabis.

Can I fly with a weed vape? What to know in light of Brittney Griner's arrest in Russia

Marijuana is legal for adult use in Arizona, but can people carry it during domestic or international travel? Answers to that and more.

Naama Issachar, 26, was sentenced to more than seven years in prison for drug trafficking charges. The BBC reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin pardoned her in January 2020 ahead of a visit of Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli Prime Minister at the moment, to Moscow.


A New York-based film student was charged with drug possession in St. Petersburg for allegedly taking medical marijuana into the country, The Moscow Times reported in September 2019.

CBS News reported Audrey Lorber was detained when she arrived in St. Petersburg for vacation and authorities found about 19 grams of marijuana on her. She said the drug was for medical reasons and showed the prescription but police said it wasn’t valid in Russia, CBS reported.

Lorber spent more than a month in a detention sentence. A court in St. Petersburg fined her for 15,000 rubles or $230 after finding her guilty.

Russian law states anything less than 6 grams is a fine.

What is hashish oil and how did it land Brittney Griner in a Russian courtroom?

Ms Griner’s appeared for her first court hearing on Friday
sports.yahoo.com sports.yahoo.com
In Russia, cannabis is illegal. An individual possessing less than 6 grams of cannabis or two grams of hash can be fined or jailed for up to 15 days. Possessing any more than that becomes a more serious criminal offense.

Ms Griner was accused of having less than a gram.

“Being sufficiently aware that the movement of narcotic drugs is not allowed… no later than February 17, 2022 at an unspecified location under unspecified circumstances from an unidentified person [Ms Griner] bought two cartridges for personal use, which contained 0.252 grams and 0.45 grams of hash oil, totaling 0.702 grams,” the prosecutor said during the trail, TASS reported.

Britney got 9 years for less than a gram bro. They charged her with trafficking narcotics when she actually less than a gram. According to Russian Law, having less than a gram is 2 weeks in prison or a fucking fine.

Weed In Russia: Cannabis Legal Status Guide

This article was originally published on 2Fast4Buds and appears here with permission.
www.benzinga.com www.benzinga.com
In accordance with the country’s Criminal Code, the possession of cannabis is punishable with a fine and/or a prison sentence. However, a change to the law in 2012 allowed for the potential for penalties to be deferred if the offender is found to suffer from addiction issues. Those found to be in possession of small quantities of up to six grams will fall foul of Russian administrative law, punishable by a fine or short prison sentence of two weeks. However, those found in possession of more than seven grams will face more serious criminal charges.


Y'all need to read lol

Here's some more Russian Law


Article 228. Illegal Acquisition, Storage, Transportation, Making or Processing of Narcotic Drugs, Psychotropic Substances or Analogues Thereof

1. Illegal acquisition, storage, transportation, making or processing of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances or analogues thereof on a large scale without the purpose of sale - shall be punishable by a fine in the amount of up to 40 thousand roubles, or in the amount of the wage or salary, or any other income of the convicted person for a period of up to three months, or by corrective labour for a term of up to two years, or by deprivation of liberty for a term of up to three years.


How do they define large scale...

2. "Large scale" in this Article, as well as in Article 228.1 and 229 of this Code, shall mean a quantity of a narcotic drug, psychotropic substance or their analogue exceeding the average one-time consumption dose by 10 or more times, and an especially large scale - by 50 and more times. The quantity of average one-time doses of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances for the purposes of this Article, as well as of Articles 228.1 and 229 of this Code, shall be endorsed by the Government of the Russian Federation.


She got charged with this...large scale narco-trafficking. She's fucking El Chapo for 2 vials of hash oil that amounted to less than a gram. This is why she is considered wrongfully imprisoned for political reasons. I am glad that y'all that think she ain't wrongfully prisoned ain't no got damn lawyers because nobody would get home.

"If you do the time, you do the time" head ass motherfuckers.

Article 228.1. Illegal Making, Sale or Sending of Narcotic Drugs, Psychotropic Substances or Analogues Thereof

1. Illegal making, sale or sending of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances or analogues thereof - shall be punishable by deprivation of liberty for a term of four to eight years.

2. The same deeds committed: a) by a group of persons in a preliminary conspiracy; b) on a large scale; c) in respect of a known minor by a person who has reached the age of 18 years - shall be punishable by deprivation of liberty for a term of five to 12 years with or without a fine in the amount of up to 500 thousand roubles or in the amount of the wage or salary, or any other income of the convicted person for a period of up to three years.

3. The deeds provided for by Parts One and Two of this Article which are committed: a) by an organized group; b) by a person through his official position; c) in respect of a person known to be under 14 years old; d) on an especially large scale - shall be punishable by deprivation of liberty for a term of eight to 20 years with or without a fine in the amount of up to one million roubles or in the amount of the wage or salary, or any other income of the convicted person for a period of up to five years.

America itself defines wrongful detention as people arrested abroad in order to influence political policy.

www.nytimes.com

Griner Case Draws Attention to ‘Wrongful Detentions’ (Published 2022)

Dozens of Americans are believed to be held by foreign adversaries as political pawns in disputes with the United States.
www.nytimes.com www.nytimes.com
Generally, an American who is held by a foreign government for the purposes of influencing U.S. policy or extracting political or economic concessions from Washington is considered “wrongfully detained.” In these cases, negotiations between the United States and the other government are key to securing the American’s freedom.
---------------------

Majority of the value of having an American passport is that you have a government powerful enough able to advocate on your behalf, so they keep track of these outrageous sentences that are disportionate.

Lol, y'all just wanna be wrong to be wrong, if you gonna be wrong, be wrong for the right reasons.

I don't see why this is so hard for them to understand. She took an illicit substance to a foreign country and got caught. This shit ain't new nor is it special, it happens and folks are routinely thrown in prison for it.

Because her sentence is politically motivated.

America said she should get 3 years max if this wasn't politically motivated, Russia gave her 9 and a large scale drug trafficking charge as a fuck you because Russia and America is at war.

Countries can't just lock up other countries citizens and give them sentences that is unreasonable according to their own law.

There's an international system at play that everyone agrees to. Countries aren't completely sovereign entities that get to do what they want.


Lol thank God y'all ain't lawyers, nobody would get home lol. American passport wouldn't be worth shit.

It’s pretty much this you’re probably right politically but abw don’t do politically correct. She broke a law in a country we beef with she was dancing with the devil and got got. Is the general consensus.

But she ain't locked up in America, so anything you say about "if this was America" is 100% invalid.

She was arrested a month before the invasion. I really doubt Putin figured they could use a barely known WNBA player as leverage for anything. Prior to the invasion, I'd wager that well over 90% of the country had no idea who she is. Shit, I'm pretty sure a good amount of the Metro Phoenix populace didn't know who she was. She has no political value and Putin had to know that.

And, yes, countries CAN, HAVE, and WILL CONTINUE to lock up citizens of other countries for however long a conviction in their country requires. That shit happens all the time, especially over drug offenses.

There's no international system that prevents you from being thrown in the clink for a long ass time if you're convicted of a crime in another country. Shit, you can be executed in another country if the crime calls for it!

If BG got hit with a year, I would give her the Kanye shrug.

Doing a year bid in Russia while there's ongoing tension and war in air, ain't that bad.

If it was peace time, she would probably just pay a big ass fine, do 2 weeks and get banned.

9 years is a war time fuck you.

First mistake: She aint in America
Second mistake: She was locked up MONTHS before they went to war
Third mistake: When the news dropped and before she got sentenced the law she broke carried 10 years and its numerous RUSSIANS locked up with doing them long bids for the same thing.

Y’all all making good points

Based on the definition outlined by the US government, she is wrongfully detained. The flip side is that the US doesn’t really have any right to dictate how Russia applies its own laws.

Face it…. She bout to be on the new season of locked up abroad.

lesson is, regardless what our rules/laws are… don’t go to another country and break their laws and not expect to suffer their outlined consequences

I think that post is saying that America says she would get 3 years max in Russia not what would happen if she was in America and got caught with the same thing. Which if true then yeah she's being wrongfully detained because the sentence isn't just about breaking a law that others have gotten much less of a sentence for
