Author Information

CeCe Espeut had a great childhood, she grew up in a loving family and was loved and well taken care of by her parents. She went to the best schools and lead a charmed life. Espeut went to college and had a promising military career in the United States Marine Corp. Then at the age of 30, she made a series of really bad decisions and ended up doing 2 years in Federal Prison for drug related offenses. Upon her release she vowed never to go back to prison and started on a life long journey to live a more productive life. In 2012 she was granted clemency by Florida Governor Rick Scott. She is now applying for a Presidential Pardon. Espeut also sits on the board for Sheriff's Office Re-Entry Commission as an advocate for civil rights restoration for ex-offenders. Espeut now visits jails and drug rehab centers to talk to the inmates about the different options available to them if they want to change their lives when they are released. She explains the difference between sealing and expunging a criminal record or getting it pardoned and the effects that it can have on someone's life and the lives of their family members. She stresses that we should all strive to make generational empowerment decisions that break the cycle of recidivism and drug addiction because these are the things that make a difference to our children and grandchildren.
