Mother’s Struggle With Addiction and Justice | Liverpool News
Description
A 45-year-old mom, Kellie Howarth, faced a 30-month prison sentence after admitting to dealing crack cocaine—earning just $60 a day—to survive her addiction fueled by trauma and loss. Caught mid-deal, she’d already served a month behind bars, saying it helped her get clean so she could be there for her 12-year-old daughter. Though her lawyer painted her as polite and remorseful, the judge noted limited regret and a cycle of addiction, ultimately reducing her sentence to let her see her child sooner.
