Buh-bye, Brittney

Brittney Griner, the WNBA star sentenced to nine years in prison in Russia for having cannabis oil in a vape cartridge, has reportedly been moved to a notorious Russian penal colony. 

In a move that her family and supporters have dreaded, the 32-year-old's transfer began on Friday. Her whereabouts are currently unknown and it could remain that way for at least two more weeks. Her lawyers said Wednesday that Russia generally sends notifications of transporting prisoners by mail and that process takes a fortnight.
