Griner, 31, faces up to 10 years in prison under the charge. She left the courtroom without giving any comment to reporters, and her next hearing is set for July 14. Griner was arrested in February at a Moscow airport after Russian officials say they found cannabis oil in her luggage. The basketball star, who plays in Russia during the WNBA's offseason, has been held since then on drug smuggling charges punishable by up to 10 years in prison. Her trial began last week.
Griner's plea came on the second day of her trial, which began last week, when a prosecutor accused her of smuggling less than a gram of cannabis oil in her luggage. According to state media agency TASS, prosecutors argue Griner intended to import the drugs into Russia's territory and put the prohibited substances into a backpack and a suitcase.

News flash people,... Everyone does NOT have to work in the same way as the U.S. it was stupid on her part to have that shit with her in another country
This is crazy rs how the fuck we let her pled guilty to this bs fuck Putin & Russia FREE BRITTNEY And everyone talking about accountability Where the fuck is Russias accountability rs
The only strategy to get out of Putin’s Russia. Now negotiations for a prisoner exchange can commence. If she pleaded not guilty it would’ve been a nightmare; no equal and fair representation under Putin’s rule.
All yaw Su please 😭🧏🏽♀️.!!
What makes her special than the other captives?
Next time bring Skittles.
There is no drama about this story, they catch here with drug on the airport, this is happen everyday on the airports around the world
Thank you BBB BIG BASTARD BIDEN
Will have no problem finding a nice Russian wife.
Note to self.. don’t take drugs to Russia!!
As she should
Well…then…she isn’t “wrongfully detained” as the liberal media and State Dept claim She just admitted she broke Russian law and had drugs with her She’s on her own StateDept
Dayum, if 1 mililiter = 1 gram or 0.001 liters and all of this is for less than a gram of cannabis oil? Less? Than a Gram? Less than a mililiter? MakeItMakeSense
Good!
Did she enter that plea of her own volition or was she threatened/forced to enter it?
WHO were her lawyers?
It’s just revenge for the sanctions
