    Going to prison saved my life. I was a drug addict for 10+ years and in 2019 I went to prison and found out I was pregnant. When I got there that night, the intake nurse told me I was pregnant. Thank god I was arrested when I was... by the time I got to the prisons OB, she informed me I was 8 weeks along. That was 2 weeks after I arrived so I was 6 weeks pregnant when I was arrested. Talk about a blessing in disguise! Prison saved my son's life as well. My son will be 5 this December (2024), I have over 5 years sober and I just started school in August for nursing ❤

      When I had a chance to speak with some women in prison and look at their cases, I realized how many women were in there due to them being used by men or toxic and/or controlling family members, or untreated mental health conditions including postpartum. Yet some are given harsher sentences than males whom did more violent crimes. The western legal system feels the need to be more mad at women for some reason.
      I no longer work much with the legal system, but I will admit many things are more fair than I assumed. However, the matters that aren't fair are truly not fair. The justice system isn't the problem, it's some of the people running it.

Her addiction to ice turned her into the worst person and somebody I did not know. I was raising her children. I was constantly being raided by police to which was traumatic for the children and myself. I couldn’t take anymore. Now years later I am happy to say I have my daughter back.

    I found my teen doing morphine which is a legal drug, I warned him about its consequences like addiction and he continued to do it. One day I found him stealing money from my neighbors(To buy the drug) and called the police and had him sent to juvenile detention for 6 months.
    I did this out of love and only due to that! This taught him a lesson that would remain forever with him and keeps him from breaking the rules. He thanks me for that till now after like 8 yrs since he did that, coz that prevented him from going to the wrong side and becoming a typical criminal.
    He was 14 when that happened. The judge even provided me an option to put him under probation, I said no to it and let him get his punishment.
    I broke into tears when he told me this when he got released - 'Dad, I'll never take freedom for granted, ever again. I accept my mistake and am extremely sorry for what I did. I Love you! '
    He never went into that direction after all this.

    But then she said her mom had gone to prison when she was a teen. That obviously took a toll on her and she definitely acted out in many ways. I hope she is able to steer clear of her former ways and teach her children so they won’t end up in prison. 🙏

Most states have felony murder laws. Most defendants are offered generous plea deals to admit guilt and sometimes testify against their co-defendant. If they refuse the plea deal and go to trial, they get the full, not the reduced, sentence.

      Though the fact that the USA imprisons the most women out of any country "speaks volumes" as the phrase goes. I think this documentary misses a huge amount of prison sentences for non-violent drug offenses (i.e. no child in their custody and not operating a vehicle at the time of using). Then you have another layer of women who get prostitution charges who grew up in broken homes or being trafficked. They get handed sentences for the only life they knew in a country that doesn't give them many resources like housing yet has high-cost taxes and goods.
      Not sure this reveals the USA as the "great and just" nation they are always trying to claim themselves as. Also take in mind, these prison sentences cost taxpayers more and more money the longer the sentences are (guards paychecks/benefits, food, utilities). And not surprisingly they keep these prisons filled over-capacity with non-violent offenses. And don't get me started on the US' for-profit prisons

    • @Eisengras
      @Eisengras 16 дней назад +31

      @@alpenjodel24 In Germany, escaping from prison is not actually punishable by law. This is because German criminal law acknowledges the so-called "natural instinct for freedom." The desire to regain one's freedom is seen as human and understandable, and therefore it is not considered a criminal offense.
      The legal basis for this can be found indirectly in the German Criminal Code (Strafgesetzbuch, StGB), as there is simply no provision that defines escape itself as a criminal act. However, there are limitations: any crimes committed during the escape, such as property damage, assault, or taking hostages, are, of course, punishable and will be prosecuted in addition.
      Relevant in this context is § 120 StGB, which addresses prisoner liberation, meaning assistance from outside. This is punishable, as is being armed or using threats of violence during the escape. Leaving the facility during temporary release or misuse of prison leave can also lead to sanctions.
      In summary:
      Escape itself: not punishable, as long as no further crimes are committed.
      Crimes during escape: punishable.
      Outside assistance: punishable under § 120 StGB.

      I hate the comments in here talking about how fake some of these women are and how they're nothing but users. The stigma and projection that people put on these women is why recidivism is so high. If you treat someone like they are a criminal and scum, then they never get the opportunities to be something more. It's shameful how many people in here have said Addie giggles because she's a sociopath. People are only too ready to dehumanize others instead of recognizing the many factors that would put us all in that same boat if we had grown up the way they had

      @sharrablackfire7337 I couldn't agree with you more. Granted that some are just born bad. But like you said, life amd it's situations make us into who we are. And when a life is just too much for one mind to handle, it breaks, and chaos happens. Addie was just a nervous giggler, nothing more. Some just don't hold empathy. So they judge while sitting on their self-made pedestal.

And she still freely admitted that what she did was wrong, that it wasn't worth it, and that she's going to keep her life on the straight and narrow once she's out so she can focus on her children. Sociopaths don't admit to wrongdoing. They don't own their actions and recognize the harm it causes to others.
      Addie was just a kid when she committed that robbery, and if her own family hadn't been one where her parents and grandparents were felons, she would have had the safety net and upbringing that would have prevented her from needing to steal for basic survival. Her environmental factors of no car of her own, no positive influences, no guidance on how to navigate life correctly were all contributing factors. She was definitely not one of those people who are born bad. I would not have been half as composed as her if someone started recording me for a youtube video with this kind of reach and told me that 2.55 million people would be watching whatever I say and judging me

      PUBLIC make up NEARLY 100% of jails/prisons.. in which public *does not make nor generate profit* Private jails are RARE to even find. (clearly as there’s not even 200 of them) they make up the tiniest % of jails and only house a small # of people.

    I like how they make her seem like she “preyed” upon this officer who was having problems at home as if she isn’t literally in prison and at a complete disadvantage as far as power dynamics. That officer knew what he was doing. He was taking advantage of the women who would buy contraband and I guarantee she was not the only inmate this officer was sleeping with.

      I agree with the first comment. I've seen men take advantage of female inmates more than once & the screws (Co's)know better, they are given so much info at training. No excuse. Plus he brought contraband into the prison & that wasn't really mentioned except by Sarah. No, I'm not an officer, I was an inmate who learned her lesson. 16yrs clean & haven't been back to jail/prison. You can change if you really want to.

He may have fallen in love with her due to her manipulation but he wasn't under any coersive force or control, he was already on a criminal path and was going to make money off this. The reason she was able to manipulate him is because he seemed to have little integrity or values in the first place.

    That’s the second girl Addy they talked to is definitely off. She talks about what she did with absolutely no remorse. Like she’s talking about what she bought at the grocery store. On the surface she seems bubbly, but look at the complete lack of empathy, or emotional understanding when describing beating another human being, there it’s frightening. It’s like she has no sense of right and wrong. She’s not even like trying to justify what she did. Some people do bad things but they’re in a tight situation or there are extenuating circumstances, but that has people like this who legitimately don’t seem to think what they did was wrong, except for the fact that they got caught. She’ll be back.

      Eye contact is valuable piece of non verbal communication
      It can converse intentions, respect, emotions, if you are paying attention if you are interested in the conversation
      If you aren’t doing eye contact
      It can converse that you aren’t interested, it can be interpreted that you don’t respect the person talking to you, it can mean that you feel ashamed when talking about something and can’t look the person in the eye

    Look, chicken patty day was definitely one of the best chow meals. I served 19 months on a 2 year sentence in an Ohio prison with the last 5 months in a halfway house/home confinement. The food was generally bland, soft, and watery. The 'chicken' patty and the 'country ''''crunchy'''' patty' were the least offensive of the main courses.
    I try to watch prison documentaries to keep me grounded. I'm an addict in recovery, but as with any addict, I am one bad choice away from living a life again that would put me back in a place like this. I know this is old, but I truly hope the best for all these ladies and everyone else who is incarcerated. It is a whole world that even a documentary cannot explain fully at all. I was lucky to have been able to use my intelligence and work in the law library. I was never really in danger as any single other inmate might need help with legal work. I went from a comp sci graduate working designing electronics to shoving needles in my body. There are good people who do bad things who end up in these places.
