Cyntoia Brown Long: ...that nobody is beyond repair

On this episode, we talk with Cyntoia Brown Long, who was sentenced to life in prison for a murder she committed at the age of sixteen. Her case became national news when celebrities like Kim Kardashian, LeBron James, and Rihanna made the hashtag #FreeCyntoia go viral in 2017. She was granted full clemency after having served fifteen years, walking out a free woman on August 7, 2019. Cyntoia is now a prison reform advocate and the author of the book, “Free Cyntoia: My Search for Redemption in the American Prison System”. She's also the subject of a Netflix documentary, “Murder to Mercy: The Cyntoia Brown Story”.   Shopify is the all-in-one commerce platform that makes it simple for anyone to start, run and grow your own successful business.
