(NewsNation) — A video showing a disabled woman entering a no-contest plea in court has gone viral, sparking outrage and renewed calls for criminal justice reform.

The woman, 26-year-old Imarah Aaliyah Bryan, spent nearly 50 days in jail after allegedly trying to steal $145 worth of merchandise from a Target in Orlando, Florida.

Criminal defense and personal injury attorney Andrew Darling told "NewsNation Now" that his son sent him the video, which he found "heartbreaking to watch."

However, he called the reactions online "a little misleading."
