Brittney Griner was transported to IK-2 Mordovia, the WORST penal colony in Russia.

- 16 hours work days
- prisoners sew uniforms for the Russian army and police & getting injured bc of the outdated equipment
- beatings x torture are common
- medical care practically not exist
- when not working in sweatshops, prisoners are subjected to heavy physical labor like digging trenches, breaking up frozen coal or manually sawing giant logs
- if a prisoner refuses to work, they're sent to a solitary confinement, a freezing cold tiny cell
- prisoners share barracks with 100 other people, with only 3-5 toilets for all, and no hot water
- shower (and hot water) once a week

Russian prison system wasn't reformed since GULAG times, if you want to get a peak into it, read Shalamov or Solzhenitsyn.

The full report on @MSNBC about IK-2 in Mordovia where Brittney Griner is set to spend 9 yrs:



My penal colony was located in less than 4 miles from IK-2. I've met dozens who went through IK-2 x who were reporting about horrific human rights abuses there.
