The story of Chrissy Taylor

Chrissy Taylor was incarcerated at the age of 19 based on her marginal involvement in her boyfriend's scheme to manufacture methamphetamine. Her boyfriend asked her to go to a store in Mobile, Alabama to pick up a shipment of chemicals. Based on his assurance that the mere purchase and possession of the chemicals was legal, she went to the store and bought them. As it happened, agents from the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) were working with the chemical store in a reverse-sting operation. The agents sold Chrissy the chemicals and then arrested both her and her boyfriend, not for possession or purchase of the chemicals - neither of which is in and of itself illegal - but instead for possession with intent to manufacture methamphetamines.
