Trista Egli has raised more than 20,000 Taylor’s checkerspots in her three years at Mission Creek Corrections Center for Women

Raising and breeding the butterflies has enabled her to start thinking about the future again.

Egli is serving a nearly nine-year sentence for a drunken hit-and-run. She drove into two pedestrians, one of whom was left brain damaged by the crash, in 2022.
