Kemba Smith's story told in new BET+ film
Kemba Smith was sentenced to more than 24 years in prison for a crime she didn't commit and now fights to help release others believed to be wrongly convicted. Her story of resilience is now a movie, and Smith and Legal Defense Fund advocate Tona Boyd joined Alex Whittler to talk about her experience.
Kemba Smith and Tona Boyd talk BET+ film "Kemba": Based on renowned criminal justice activist Kemba Smith's precedent-setting case, the film premiered on BET this week. The Film is based on the unbelievable, unjust long-time incarceration of Smith, who was wrongfully sentenced to decades in prison. Smith never sold or used drugs but was forced to take the fall for her boyfriend. When the police failed to take him down, they arrested her instead. With the volunteer help of the leading organizations in the country working on getting out wrongfully convicted innocents, she was finally released after six years in prison. Tona Boyd is one of those principles responsible for helping Smith get released.
