Brittney Griner came across a piece of duct tape in the room with the message, “Gay Baby Jail.” The future Hall of Famer came out in 2013 and has been married to her wife, Cherelle, since 2019.
Per TMZ Sports, Prince George’s County Police Department believes that the note was a coincidence. They shared the following statement on the matter:
“Detectives have learned the phrase ‘gay baby jail’ is commonly used as a video game reference. At the time the tape was located, a large convention was taking place at the Gaylord which attracts thousands of people, many with an interest in anime as well as video game enthusiasts. At this time, detectives have uncovered no link to or threat against the guest who located the tape.”
Fans came together to offer messages of support for Brittney Griner following the triggering incident:
“IStandWithBrittney,” wrote a fan.
