(Takes place in 2004) The sterile hum of the processing center fills the air as a 19-year-old woman stands for her mugshot, charged with burglary. A female guard searches her, handing over a white shirt and the standard orange jumpsuit. Refusing to conform, she wears the shirt and drapes the jumpsuit loosely around her hips. Cuffed, she is led into the jail block, the atmosphere heavy with tension as she spots a few female inmates among the predominantly male population.
