the situation currently stands and where we hope to go from here, terri jackson, welcome to the dailyw not even discussion but the situation, some people have seen pieces of the story, brittney griner detained in russia. some say it was false accusation, some say it was because of prescription, how did the story start to get everybody on the same page. >> our very own brittney griner, bg was returning back to russia i think everybody saw that clip of her in the airport, at some point there was a search of her belongings. and what we learned thereafter was that she was detained. she was returning back to russia to go play with her team that she has played with for several years and won greats chichs for them. so she didn't make it back to the team. she was detained and let's just stop right there and just think about what that means to be an american over in russia to be learning about this process in real time. and coming forward and making the statements that she made. we're just hoping and praying that the judge, the court extends her great compassion and great mercy because that wa

joining us now is terry jackson, executive director of the wnba players association.thank you for joining us. i know this must be a lot for you to take in this morning. the possibility, potentially having brittney come home in exchange for viktor bout. i want to talk about your mobilization effort and going public, and what you call go time in bringing brittney home. there had been a few months because of the state department suggesting that this should not be brought to the forefront that we did not hear much about brittney and did not speak much about her. but that all changed and you helped spearhead that and make it public. do you think that's one of the reasons we now have president biden signing off on this potential prisoner swap? >> well, i don't know. but, bianna, let me thank you for having me on the show. the more that we have the opportunity to talk about b.g., raise awareness about this case, it is just a tremendous opportunity to talk about her, to talk about paul whelan and other detainees. so, again, thank you very much. yes, we were quiet in the begin
