Miriah Vanlith Inmate Posts On Tiktok Video
Miriah Vanlith has created a TikTok video in which she invites people to contact her if they “want to talk” and become pen pals. Vanlith’s account quickly grew to 33,000 followers after she posted eight videos.
Vanlith told the Statesman that she made the video to meet new people and that having a pen pal helps her pass the time in prison.
Prisoners can use the JPay system to send emails and video files to people in the outside world, but they cannot directly access social media. That means someone else created a TikTok account for the inmate and uploaded the videos. Her profile has since been deactivated.
Vanlith is accused of sexually abusing other boys, including a 15-year-old, but another charge was dropped as part of a plea deal.
Vanlith refused to say how she obtained the TikTok videos, but a quick search on TikTok turns up hundreds of Boise inmates looking for pen pals, with some even using photos from their past to entice people.
