Born a premature crack baby and weighing only three pounds, she was not expected to live. She was so small she was fed with an eyedropper until she could be fed normally. According to her memoir, Grace After Midnight, she met her biological parents very few times; her mother was a crack addict and her father a stick-up man. She thus decided to go by her foster familys surname. She was a tomboy from a young age. Instead of attending school, Pearson worked as a drug dealer. At the age of 14, she was convicted of second-degree murder in the shooting death of a girl named Okia Toomer and sentenced to two eight-year terms, to be served consecutively, at the Maryland Correctional Institution for Women in Jessup, Maryland. She was released after 6.5 years. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felicia_Pearson
