Fox News' Greg Palkot reports on the trial of WNBA star Brittney Griner, who's been in Russian detention since February. Brittney Griner testified on Wednesday that she believed a translation issue may have clouded her February arrest in Russia and led to her signing documents without being properly told what she was doing.
Griner’s testimony came in the latest day of her drug trial. She was arrested earlier this year for allegedly bringing in vape cartridges containing oils derived from cannabis through a Moscow airport as she was returning to the country to play for her winter team overseas.
Griner pleaded guilty to the charge but maintained she may have packed them inadvertently. The Olympic gold medalist said during her testimony she made a 13-hour flight from Arizona to Moscow while recovering from coronavirus.
Griner explained she doesn’t know how the cannabis oils got in her bag but explained she had a doctor’s recommendation for it and packed it in haste.
