It was the one thing that I felt like just completed me. Within a year, I lost custody of my 4 kids to DCFS and I had racked up a bunch of charges."Doyle served time at the Utah State Prison and then at a federal prison in Arizona. There, she decided to make some changes."I started to take accountability for my actions and realized that I didnt want to live this lifestyle," she said.RELATED STORY | Biden commutes 1,500 sentences in largest single-day grant of clemency in modern historyDoyle started helping people who were struggling with substance abuse and even went back to school to study social work."I never thought I would graduate college, let alone get a masters degree, Doyle said.On Wednesday, she got a special phone call and was pardoned by President Biden."I was like, no way, I cant believe this is happening.
