She's not spoiled. She's not petulant. She's not a druggie.
Her prior words and actions do not support that statement.
She's a US citizen that was unjustly held prisoner in a foreign country. The US government was going to work to free her.
Although I personally and vehemently disagree with the severity of her punishment, Griner was not held "unjustly." She broke their laws.
There are other Americans held prisoner in plenty of foreign countries for similar and lesser crimes and for far longer than Griner. And she was traded for a mercenary who's actions have contributed to the injuries and deaths of members of our military.
Griner received preferential consideration from our government for no other reason than identity politics.
