What did she do?

[–] knfrmity@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 2 years ago (3 children)

She tried to bring cannabis products into Russia. While the sentence may be harsh, she broke the law.

[–] Idliketothinkimsmart@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 2 years ago

I can only really feel bad for her because her sentence is honestly only as strong as it is because of the current conflict. Usually, rich people are able to wiggle out of these things.

Talk about 0 self preservation tho :/.
