Episode Title: Jonel

Air Date: 2016-07-24

Overview:

Jonel was born into the Blackfeet Indian Tribe in Montana. When she was 9 months pregnant, her boyfriend was tragically killed in a car accident and then she gave birth to their daughter just days after the funeral. Shocked and grief stricken, Jonel began using Suboxone and meth--two drugs that are rampant on the reservation. 14 months ago, Jonel gave birth to her second child who was born addicted to Suboxone. Now at rock bottom, she begs and steals for her next fix. Her family fears that if Jonel doesn't get help soon, she will die, chalked up as just another statistic on a reservation.
