At 19, Murrell-French was sentenced to prison for stabbing a 17-year-old girl in the neck at a Minnesota gas station during a fight. The 17-year-old girl was hospitalized for a collapsed lung and injuries to her jugular. At the time of the sentencing, approximately 10 months after the incident, a county attorney said the 17-year-old girl still suffered from nerve damage. Murrell-French cried and apologized for the incident, according to The St. Paul Pioneer Press.

On Facebook, her Christmas post has over 11,000 likes and 4,700 shares.

“She can stab me while I’m sleeping,” one Facebook user commented before adding the heart-eyes emoji.

Her Facebook page has over 20,000 followers, as social media users continue to ask for her cash app and JPay accounts so they can put money on her books.

“What’s yo bond?” A user asked. “W2s finna go out and I’ve been saving for a crib, but s— I’ll spend it to get you out.”

Former prison bae, Jeremy Meeks, turned his incarcerated fame into an acting and modeling career once released. Recently, Meeks co-starred in “True to the Game 3.”
