“This is the worst day of my life. My experience in this country was never easy, but I never thought I would end up in jail. As a devoted Muslim, I’ve disappointed my family and my faith.
Fifteen years is a long time. My life is ruined, my dreams are shattered. I regret everything. I should have followed my instincts, but instead, I followed a stranger—a drug dealer.
This is the end of my journey.”
