	Keana Hebert At the time of filming, Keana Herbert is a 23 year-old mother of three incarcerated for the possession of heroin. We first meet Keana, serving her third year of a five-year sentence, in maximum security. Keana tells her tale of downfall and regret. Simultaneously, we meet her mother, Linda, who acts as both mother and grandmother to Keana's children. Through Linda's accounts, we hear a parent's view on the hardships of raising children in a time when temptation and danger loom in the poverty-stricken neighborhoods of New Orleans. Ten months clean, we witness Keana¹s release from prison and her struggle to stay out.
	Heather Zerangue Heather Zerangue is serving a three-year sentence for criminal damage to property and aggravated assault. Estranged from her mother (who also served time), Heather's grandparents raised her in an affluent community in the suburbs of New Orleans. Heather's anger and frustration, which often get her into trouble, may prevent her from receiving an early release date. Heather and her mother, Mary Badgeron, are reunited at the time of her parole hearing. Click on picture to hear Heather Zerangue.
	Adine Rayford Adine Rayford is serving the first and most difficult year of a 20-year sentence for killing an abusive boyfriend- she has just given birth to her second child. Her son will become a ward of the state if Adine's family does not pick him up within 24 hours of his delivery. If her family does claim the child, Adine will be reunited with him when he turns 19 years old
