Walk to Freedom

About the Book

This is an autobiography of my life story. I was previously confined at Ft. Leavenworth United States Disciplinary Barracks located in Fort Leavenworth, KS. This is a Military Confinement Facility where military men and women, who have been court-martialed, are confined together.

I was one of 13 females to make history, by being among the last females confined at Ft. Leavenworth United States Disciplinary Barracks, when the military established a military prison for females “only.” at Miramar Naval Brig., in San Diego, Ca.  

I committed the crime of Larceny of one half million dollars hoping it would buy me the love I so desired from a man to fill the empty void in my life. I committed my crime not out of a need for money but out of the need to be loved and desired by a man. My ex-lover as well as co-conspirator in my crime was the key witness against me at my court-martial, of which I was sentenced to eight years confinement.
