The detention of Houston native and Baylor grad Brittney Griner has been extended by six months, awaiting the outcome of her trial which is scheduled to begin in Moscow Friday.

Four months ago, Griner was arrested at a Russian airport and accused of having vape cartridges containing hashish oil in her luggage. If convicted, she faces ten years in a Russian prison.


The Russian news agency TASS has suggested that the USA and Russia could reach a deal to exchange Griner for a Russian arms dealer who is serving 25 year in the US for agreeing to sell arms to a Colombian terrorist group.
