I’ll share details of an incident that led to my wrongful imprisonment, the emotional impact of my conviction without a body, against police evidence, and presumptions.
I’ll describe the horrendous and inconceivable conditions of overcrowding and high death rates in the cells, and how my decade-long nightmare birthed a string of life lessons.
Throughout my talk, I’ll show you photos and sketches to highlight the details of my experience and how I had to dig deep to find solutions to overcome the unimaginable, physically and mentally.
