She had an unexpected cellmate.
Amanda Tarver, a Miami, Florida, wife and mother of two, discovered she was pregnant two weeks after she was put behind bars on a drug conviction.
“I didn’t even know if I’d make it to full-term because of my stress and anxiety levels,” she said.
The former convict was sentenced to 24 months in the clink after helping her husband (then-boyfriend) Legend, sell drugs by transferring money — and receiving packages at her apartment.
“I really thought my life was over,” Tarver said. “When they told me the verdict, I was in shock.”
Her partner in crime was given 47 months for conspiracy to import a controlled substance.
Tarver, 34, a first-time offender, served her sentence at Coleman Federal Prison Complex in Florida from 2015 to 2016.
While she and Legend remained in the big house, her son Dorian, 6, at the time, had to stay with her mother-in-law Maria.
