Mia Santoro, a juvenile co-defendant in Tay-K's 2016 home invasion robbery case, detailed her traumatic experiences. Born in Fort Worth, Texas, Mia's childhood was marked by her parents' alcoholism and neglect. At 12, she met Ariana, a 17-year-old dealer, who introduced her to substances and trafficking. Mia was repeatedly assaulted and forced into prostitution. In 2016, she was involved in a robbery where a man was killed. Despite her claims of being a victim, she was convicted and sentenced to 20 years. Mia's case highlights the complexities of trafficking and the challenges in proving it. Mia Santoro discussed her journey from being sentenced to 20 years in prison for a crime she didn't commit to winning her appeal and receiving 10 years' probation. She detailed the initial plea deal of 10 years' probation, which was withdrawn after Tay-K cut his ankle monitor off. Mia's parents hired an attorney, who successfully appealed her case, revealing 12 errors in the trial. Despite this, Mia faced significant challenges, including being mistaken for another inmate and being sentenced to an undetermined sentence in an adult prison. She emphasized the impact of her trafficking and the systemic failures that led to her conviction.
