Suzanne Squires Clemency Chapter 1.mov

In 1999, Suzanne Squires was driving her children to see St. Augustine's Christmas lights, when she hit another car, killing her own 4 year old daughter and injuring herself, her other two children, and the other driver. Suzanne, a
Registered Nurse and recovering alcoholic with 10 years of sobriety, was drunk. The state of Florida sentenced Suzanne to 23 years in prison. She has served 10. Now, the other driver, Suzanne's children, and the community are asking for mercy.

Part 1: The judge did not see how remorseful Suzanne was, because her lawyer told her not to cry. "The judge hates hysterical women."
