Summary

When a 17-year-old mother of two young children finds her youngest baby not breathing, she runs for help. But instead of sympathy, she received a death sentence. This is the story of Sabrina Butler-Smith - the first woman in U.S. history to be exonerated from death row. Her story isn't just about injustice - it's about how quickly the system can turn a tragedy into a nightmare. But it's also about how a teenager transformed from a grieving, convicted killer into one of our country's most powerful voices for justice reform.
