US basketball star pleads guilty in Russian drugs case
Brittney Griner has entered a guilty plea in her Russian drugs case, according to reports from the courtroom just outside Moscow

But with an excuse that she had no intent on committing a crime.
I would suggest that is possible and should be taken into consideration when a penalty is considered. However, in the real world a prisoner trade will be made and her relative value to the Russians will be considered on the basis of the guilty plea.
Hopefully the trade will take place soon!
