Then she was kidnapped and kept chained to a bed for 4 days. Her son was born dead from her addiction - they brought him back, he's five now and with her mom. She still goes back out for another fix the same night she gets Narcan. She's been doing this for 20 years and she's 34.
In the video below, Alicia sits on a Baltimore street and shows the camera what that actually looks like on a body.
She had four years clean. Came home and her 15-year-old son had taken charges for a gang: nine felonies. She didn't want him to die. That was enough. Eight days later everything was gone.
She's been on the streets since she was 25. Kidnapped and chained to a bed for four days. Put in the trunk of a car to Florida. Rates have dropped from $120 a time to $20 now.
She went to jail, got pregnant, wrote a letter asking for help, got into a program, went to college, got an associate degree, was studying addictions counseling. Left class one day and got hit by a drunk driver. Broken hip, one leg shorter than the other, now walks with a limp. The nursing home they sent her to was giving out oxycontin illegally. She got hooked again. Got released with nothing.
She shows the camera her arms. Xylazine is now in Baltimore's supply and it stains the skin permanently. Black patches spreading up both arms. One month of use. She shows a wound she peeled back that morning. It's eating holes through.
Broken nose. Broken jaw. Broken collarbone from falling off a bus stop. Glass in her foot from cleaning a neighbor's porch. Hernias from rapid weight loss - her intestines rupture through the skin when she eats. No teeth. She weighs around 126 pounds. She usually walks around 180.
Her 17-year-old daughter has been in foster care for 12 years. She found Alicia last month when she was in jail. The daughter has a full scholarship to study marine wildlife biology. She's been cutting herself because she thinks she's not enough to make her mother stop. Alicia says she can't let herself die because if she does, her daughter will too.
She says she's supposed to go to rehab Monday.
