NEW: Florida woman gives emotional testimony about being placed in solitary confinement for more than 3 days after a Flock camera falsely connected her vehicle to a deadly crash:
"Correctional officers told me I had to stay there because of the severity of my charges... The cell door was shut and it was not open for approximately 86 hours."
