Paul Whelan says he doesn't 'understand' why he's still in Russian captivity after Brittney Griner was freed

yes, she admitted guilt in open court admins claimed she didn’t realize she had left it in her bag. it was found in her bag
"Traditionally, the best defense is to admit your guilt and hope you get a lesser sentence," William Pomeranz, the acting director of the Wilson Center's Kennan Institute in Washington and an expert on Russian law, told ESPN earlier this month. "There's not a lot of examples of people raising strong defenses and getting acquitted."

Despite the serious charges against her, an official admission of guilt was the best option for Griner in both the short and long term. First and foremost, the nature of the Russian legal system meant there was essentially zero chance she would be acquitted, according to TJ Quinn. Pleading not guilty and putting up a fierce defense may have led to retribution from Russian authorities while she remains detained.

yep she admitted guilt in court…taking responsibly usually leads tj less of a punishment…it’s true here

that doesn’t prove your claim she was somehow given a false confession.

You really do dislike black folks. Pleading not guilty and putting up a fierce defense may have led to retribution from Russian authorities while she remains detained.

What part of that do you not understand? Had she not plead guilty her punishment would have been greater, in other words her only choice was to plead guilty. Now unless you have been in that position before you can't tell anyone ish.

No here black folks had confessions beaten out of them for crimes they didn't commit. I can start with the Scottsboro Boys up to the Central Park 5. It's a shame your folks didn't teach your boot lickin ass any black history growing up.
