How I Survived Being Locked Up In A Texas Jail | Amber Mettlen
Amber Mettlen was born in Texas, lost her father young, and moved with her mom and five siblings to Ohio—a turning point that sent her into the wrong crowd, juvenile detention, and years of chaos. As an adult, a DUI led to jail time. After moving back to Texas, a second DUI and felony charges put her 30 days inside a Texas jail. Amber later went viral for her no-filter jail stories, and in this episode she opens up about juvenile detention vs. adult jail, what a Texas county jail is really like, the cost of DUIs, how fast a night out becomes a felony, and the hard lessons that helped her turn everything around.
