Well, that was like stabbing me right in the heart. No, the autism is what got her in there. And then no treatment for medical was what was putting her in so much pain. And she's disabled now. She can barely walk. She's in constant pain. She still, it's a year later, and we still haven't seen a neurosurgeon or a back doctor of any kind.

And then, which still is the case now, or a year later, she's got a thicker mattress and she does have a pillow, but she's had no treatment. So I started being vocal with the health services people, lieutenants in the prison, fighting for just simple things like underwear and socks. For four weeks, she had no underwear and no socks.

I went to the head lieutenant under the warden of the jail. And I also went to the health services administrator who was to make sure she was getting the medications she should be getting.

No treatment, no pain medication, sleeping pretty much on metal, no pillow.
