    Good for him. I would like to hear more of this positive stuff with others getting second ,third and fourth chances from judges when getting sentenced. If there was more of these stories with endings or beginning of ex convicts after they get out of jail and prison I think more inmates would follow suit and do the same as thing and not keep going back to prison and jail for more crimes committed. These inmates do have choices and it's great hearing of this kinda choice he made. More respect to this young man and I hope his story reach's those inside jails and prisons. I bet this guy's family and friends are super proud of this guy. More power to him also. Congratulations I hope you reach the stars!!!!

    This is what redemption looks like. Anyone can change. He’s giving back, which is more than I can say for some of the racist and idiotic comments I read in the comment section.

      What have you done with your life? What do you want criminals in prison to do? I bet if he was white you would be saying “god bless this man. So happy he turned his life around and is better for society.” Conservatism really is literal Brain rot. It’s sad, because it’s people like you that push more centrist down the middle people to become far left or far right. I feel sorry for people like you. Have compassion.
