Episode Details

A sixty-six-year-old woman, Kim Kerwin, pleaded guilty to smuggling cocaine, ketamine, and cannabis into prison—hidden in her underwear and passed to an inmate—after surveillance caught her. Claiming she was coerced with threats of murder and unaware of the drugs’ contents, her defense highlighted a lifetime of heroin addiction, trauma, and mental health struggles. The prosecution acknowledged her vulnerability. Sentenced to 18 months suspended for two years, she must complete rehab and a year of treatment—with the judge warning this is her only chance; any future violations mean immediate jail time.
