Lynne Elliott

Lynne Elliott is a former federal prisoner in the United States who entered prison when she was six weeks pregnant. She did not see her child, a beautiful boy, again until he was five years old. While incarcerated, she earned enough college credits for two associate degrees and became a certified paralegal. Upon release, Lynne worked two full-time jobs and held a paper route.  She now works for a chemical corporation and has full custody of her little boy who is now almost twelve years old. Lynne’s motto is that, “if you are given a second chance, you better give it all you’ve got”.
