Young mother, victim of drug war
wrongly arrested, jailed, and indicted based on the word of a confidential informant…
After being involved in a drug sweep… with no prior drug record, no evidence or any drugs found on her, Regina had a choice: plead guilty and go home to her four children as a convicted felon or remain in prison for potentially decades for a crime she did not commit.

This is the Regina Kelly story.
