A Russian court has sentenced a former US diplomat to 14 years in prison for "large-scale" cannabis smuggling.
Marc Fogel had previously worked at the US embassy in Moscow, but was employed as an English teacher in the city at the time of his arrest.
Fogel was sentenced in the same jurisdiction that is hearing a marijuana-related case against US basketball star Brittney Griner.
Cannabis is legal in many parts of the US, but remains illegal in Russia.
Fogel, who is in his 60s, had around 17g (0.6oz) of cannabis in his luggage when he was caught on 15 August 2021 at Sheremetyevo airport, he told lawyers.
Fogel said a doctor had prescribed the drug for medical reasons after he had spinal surgery, and that he was not aware medical marijuana was illegal in Russia.

Maybe this Britney guy will learn how important freedom is before the 15 years are up.
Unfortunately, dominion voting will not allow a Republican president who could actually get him out of jail.
Take a knee Brit!!

Putin should troll the frick out of Biden by saying that Donald Trump called and asked if he'd release Griner and he decided he'd do it for DJT.
Would be beautiful to see the media try and spin that.

The more American politicians make this political, the more she's fricked.
Russia hates strong-arming especially by this inept administration.

One day privileged Americans will learn that they leave their constitutional rights AND American privileges at the boarder when they leave this country and realize very few countries outside of the America left believe in this global society BS.

Brittney should have watched "Midnight Express" on her flight over.

Well, She didn’t like it here in America so I hope they keep her. Maybe we could send all the kneelers on a trip to Russia and do the USA a favor.

Marc Fogel is the one that deserves sympathy and outrage - his situation is heartbreaking, considering that he had an actual medical excuse

14 years for pot is harsh no doubt, but when you go to a foreign country, know their laws. Privilege and playing the gay card doesn't work everywhere. Maybe she is just now beginning to understand why that flag she won't stand for represents a difference in the world. That flag that men and women fought for and died for so she could have the freedom to act like an arse means something. Maybe she will learn that elections have consequences and that electing incompetent people because of irrational hatred isn't the way to behave.

Why should Griner get any special treatment from our state department? She broke the law of a foreign country! How arrogant we would be to expect them to let her crime slide?
I'll bet Griner and the WNBA bitches don't think the U.S. is such a bad country now, huH?

Perhaps Russia’s harsh drug law sentence and lack of catering to her status as a gay, black, celebrity athlete will give her a whole new appreciation of the rights and freedoms afforded to her in America where she claims she was so oppressed.

She better brush up on her Russian.

Two worldly truths that I know of right now.
1. If you're an American, don't take drugs into Russia.
2. If you're not a Democrat, don't protest in DC.

Going to another country? Do not break their laws.
