Interesting - apparently this isn’t the first rodeo for ol’ Betsey - from her Wikipedia entry.
Wright is a supporter of the feminist movement, a prisoners’ rights advocate, and strongly opposes capital punishment.[31][32][33] She often visits inmates on Arkansas’ death row at the Varner Unit, a high-security prison located near Grady.[34]
While visiting a death row inmate in 2005, Wright was accused of trying to smuggle money into the prison. After the incident, Wright lost visitation privileges for six months.[35] In August 2009, the Arkansas State’s Attorney’s office filed 51 felony charges against Wright, accusing her of attempting to smuggle a knife, tweezers, a boxcutter, and 48 tattoo needles into the Varner Unit on May 22.[36][37] During an interview with the Associated Press, Wright denied any wrongdoing.[38]
