Rosie Goldsmith reports from New York on the plight of mothers in American prisons. The US locks up more people than any other country, and the fastest-growing sector of the prison population is women. Most of them are mothers, and a new law has increased the likelihood that they will lose custody of their children. Goldsmith investigates the psychological trauma caused by the separation of mother and child.
