Hello, Melissa. It's been, boy, more than a decade since I first met you. When we first met, did you ever think you'd still be here this long?

No. Why am I still in here?

63.715 - 86.645 Unknown

I just don't understand. You may remember in 2009, Melissa Kaluzinski was working at a Lincolnshire daycare. She was given 31 years in prison for the death of a 16 month old who was in her care. Since then, she and her supporters have been fighting back, calling this a wrongful conviction. It hurts.

She doesn't belong there. She's the kind of person that would take her shirt off her back and help other people. This is my baby. This is my youngest. I just want her home. I used to work at the Minisubi daycare. I think it was definitely more than a job to her. The kids were her number one priority. I feel like the kids brightened her day.

Do you believe that Melissa Kaluzinski had anything to do with Ben Kingan's death? Zero.

She had nothing to do with it. I am Melissa Kaluzinski's current attorney. She loved Ben. Ben loved her.
