Moscow-Sana

The Khimki District Court in the Moscow suburb of Moscow sentenced American basketball player Britney Grenier to nine and a half years in prison after she was caught in a drug smuggling case.

According to the Russia Today website, the public prosecutor called for the player to be imprisoned, while the lawyers demanded either the complete acquittal of the American athlete or a minimum sentence, while Grenier pleaded guilty.

Phoenix Mercury women's basketball player Brittney Grenier was detained at Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport last February on charges of attempting to smuggle narcotics into Russia.

According to Russian customs, electronic cigarettes and cannabis oil were found in Grenier's bags, as the player later confessed to the drug smuggling charge attributed to her.
