“As I sit here in a Russian prison, alone with my thoughts and without the protection of my wife, family, friends, Olympic jersey, or any accomplishments, I’m terrified I might be here forever,” Griner wrote.
Brittney Griner initially was detained just a week before Russia invaded Ukraine, stoking fears among her loved ones and supporters that she was being used as a political pawn.that the Russian government possibly is interested in releasing Griner in exchange for the release of Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout. Bout, known as the “Merchant of Death,” is serving a 25-year federal prison sentence in the U.S. for selling weapons to a Colombian terrorist group.
In her letter, Griner told Biden that her family usually spends the Fourth of July honoring the service of “those who fought for our freedom, including my father who is a Vietnam War Veteran.”
We need to get her home.
