Growing Up in Prison — Plot

In 1958, Charles Starkweather went on a murder rampage that left 11 people dead. He took with him his 14-year-old ex-girlfriend Caril Fugate. When he was captured, the big question became whether he had kidnapped Caril, or she was his accomplice. The jury believed she had helped Charlie, and sentenced her to life in prison. This documentary was made after she had been in prison for more than a decade.
