Martha Stewart Discusses Prison Experience in Documentary

In her upcoming Netflix documentary 'Martha', Martha Stewart reflects on her challenging five-month incarceration at Alderson Federal Prison Camp, known as 'Camp Cupcake'. She reveals that despite its nickname, her experience was far from pleasant, detailing humiliating moments such as a physical exam where she was stripped of her clothes. Stewart recounts an incident where she was placed in solitary confinement for 24 hours after accidentally brushing against a guard, resulting in a day without food or water. Her letters from prison, which are voiced in the documentary, depict the poor living conditions and inadequate food quality, stating, 'Everything was terrible.' Stewart's candid revelations about her time in prison highlight the stark contrast between the prison's nickname and her actual experiences there. The documentary is set to premiere on October 30, 2024.
