From our archive -- In this criminal justice documentary, juvenile Morris is brought into detention after cops find him smoking weed outside of an apartment building. Turns out Morris also had an outstanding bench warrant for not appearing at a previous court hearing. This exclusive documentary shows what life inside is really like for juveniles who are arrested and must go before a judge to learn their fate. Does prison await, or will Morris and his parents find a way to convince the judge he's not a criminal? Updates on Morris's story coming soon!

Lmaoooo they taking the marijuana thing too far 😹😹 acting like he’s on meth
For real!!
Bc it’s a minimum charge of 75+ Years!
Exactly
AbUsInG HaRd DruGs
Facts
Bro looks like the chillest dude and probably just needs a positive hobby to keep him from being around the wrong people
Yup
He would like stamp collecting.
*Amen.*
Yeah sad state to feel u have no outlet. Hopefully he gets the help needs for himself and his family.
Yeah cause hes high
I like that his mother isn’t mad at him and she’s talking to him instead of being angry at home
they probably went through the talk and now they just wanna get through it together and peacefully
The mom is an angel
People smile for pictures.
*Amen.*
I think you should all immigrate to the Netherlands. These things do not exist in my country. Kids arent restrained in cuffs, let alone arrested for smoking weed??? The need to wear a white prison suit... whats that about? We dont have that in prison, you get to wear your own clothes to keep your humanity. Thats just absolutely bizar, going to jail for marijuana, its legal here and there is no crime because of THAT. You treat people like animals.
Hearing him say “I’m crazy” I just burst into tears. Hurt my heart so bad.
We agree @KitanaMarley Artistry. That visitation was a hard one for all of us the day we filmed it.
*passes you a tissue* no tears hun your too pretty to shed any.. 🫡
He recognizes that somethings wrong and obviously wants help to fix it.
Man o man when u so self aware and know ur fighting those demons ain't no joke!!!
This is heartbreaking. “ I think Morris is a stinker “ the KID punched a few walls and smoked some weed 🤷🏾♂️ this is the system literally creating a “ criminal “
Exactly
Exactly that. They are acting like he was wanted for burglary or something. I just can’t believe his momma put him in that position cause he punched a hole in the wall. She just offered up her son to the prison system!!! I could never call the police on my child unless it was something really serious. And I have a 12 year old!
Called the kid a stinker…. she’s a clown
Exactly what happened to me in Barrett Corecctional Facilty, I did all thT time for nothing
Anger issues are usually a cry out and smoking marijuana? There are a WHOLE lot of people who should be in jail then lol.
this how you turn normal kids into criminals
I went through the same thing as this kid but I change my life because I wanted to. a lot of kids don’t want to they say oh I wanna go home I want to do better then they get out and do the same thing over and over. So at the end of the day it’s up to the kid and what he or she wants to do with there life.
@@pinkyl2537 I agree with you on this..... I was born into a gang. I wanted out because "I wanted" to get out. My mind was made up
getting locked up for smoking thats peek
Facts he smokes weed n punches a wall he gets locked up for that...tf why black parents so mean???
A lot of them already products of their environment
Poor baby:( the fact that he cries cause he feels like he’s going crazy or that he is, Is accurate. I hope his mental health has gotten a bit better from now, cause it eventually will🥺
Thanks for watching and commenting. We always tell kids that things do get better with maturity, but to always accept help when you need it. We see many, many kids like Morris who struggle through their teen years. Thankfully, we also see them turn their lives around. Another reason why kids deserve our attention and resources. Thanks again for being with us on our channel. Hope you'll hit the "subscribe" button if you haven't already. Much more to come!
@@CalamariProductions Many of these kids are in desperate need of either a father or another male role model whom they (IE) Love, FEAR, and respect! I have personally been on both sides of the fence in this case...initally as the son then years later on down the road as the central parental figure in my then 14 year old sons life!
YES..... He had me shedding a tear for him... Thnk God he has a supportive mother!!!!
When you feel Yourself Losing your mind What do you do
Girl stop
Everybody focus on the “anger issues” but neglect where they may have come from
Exactly what they did to his ancestors 300 yrs ago is a great start
I Agree they never want to figure out why the person is acting out, just quick to pin labels on people
Right where is the child’s father?
straight facts
@@freetobree5323 14:21 he says “and my father” the parents split up, but dads still in the picture sometimes. The divorce/break up is probably what started everything. Divorce is one of the “major traumas” for kids
“It fees different when i cry, i haven’t cried in a long time.” really spoke to me. i think people have different outlets of how they handle things, and this right here shows me he has never experienced another way to release his emotion other than anger. poor thing 😢
His words are good signs, bcoz of juvenile justice board only… He has to help himself through.,,
The conversation between him and his mom is simply perfection .. you can tell she has so much patience , love , understanding for her boy.. and him talking to his mom you can tell her loves and trusts her so much for him to cry ..
Girls love that type.
I really like morris's lawyer . You can tell he really cares . The world needs more like him .
That’s what I was just thinking. And that’s what this kid needs, care and someone to help him and show him the correct way. Instead of locking him up, treating him like a convict. This kid needs help, not some jail place. These people treat him like crap. His lawyer and his mom seem super great. That white woman that questions him just ticks me off the way she talks to him.
@@andrewhoward4523 Right... She seemed mean & nasty like she just don't give af ! I couldn't stand her .
Nah he needs his father in his life..did you see the way she was nodding her head to the system,when she could have easily worked with his dad...God will punish all these useless mums..
Well, that is his job also. Sorta like a defense attorney defending someone who we know is dead wrong... but then, that's another show...
Rightt
His mother is incredible. She wants the better for his son. Her support show her love.
I wish the better for Morris ❤️
I hope he will find his own path 🔥
Lol yeah right she suuuuucks. If she were any good he wouldn't be in this dilemma
@@theoutlet8835 man you're way off in your simple minded reasoning. Read a book on psychology. Some kids will not listen to rhyme or reason
@@jerkyboy8897 spend time with your kids ..and ive read plenty on psychology so if you want to box yourself in to statistics thats on you and judging from your comment you should pick a book up cause i obviously got you to react just with the power of my thumb
@@theoutlet8835 It may not.be the moms fault. There are some juveniles who are angry because their fathers are not around or they are going through withdraws from drugs. Some of them are genetically predisposed to some type of behavioral or mental issue(s). There are juveniles who come a two parent home who end up in juvenile facilities or prison . Let's also take into account their social environments and socioeconomic statuses.
Naw. She need to support him more. She letting the system raise her son. That's why he in jail the first place.
Is it just me, or does it seem like the staff/officers wanted him in jail. like they’re enjoying watching him go thru all this
@Thanvir Iqbal They don't get anything. Private prisons cost the government money and qmd state run facilities run at a huge deficit.
Its not just you at all💯
It’s definitely not just you his eyes look the exact same the entire time and they said his eyes red like he high🤔
I agree, I noticed that too. Especially that first white lady.
Totally agree. This is sad. They rather continue putting him in jail instead of getting him real help.
You cannot rehabilitate a child with handcuffs, white walls, constant hostile environments, and a bunch of people who care more about their pockets and the law than what that child actually needs. Too many young people go in the system and return to their parents worse that they were due to them being treated like criminals and prisoners which is ultimately what they turn into.
Exactly
he’s so aware of his emotions and behavior that is big... he is gonnaa turn around. I had a breakdown like this with my mom over my rages of anger , its a process but self awareness and acceptance is the first step! God keep your hands on him and his family 🙏🏾
I think he will too. Bless
I'm a single mom and I went through the same stuff with my son when he was young, they put him in juvie, he hooked up older boys that had done worst crimes he looked up to them though they were cool only made matters worse. He spent his teenage years going in and out of juvie, and then spent his 20s in and out of jail, I'm glad to say he's now 31 has a wife two children and hasn't been in jail for the last 8 years,
Amen!!
Amen 🙏🏾
Amen
I Salute it
@mr business credit stfu no where did she say she ran the father off stop assuming stuff
Morris had a fight with his mother and punched a wall - at least he didn't punch his mother! It is obvious that Morris and his mother love each other very much!
I disagree. He should not punch anything and have self-control and show respect and love to his mother.
@@andrewbrand200 its not easy to hold that anger in. You gotta get it out or it can drive you to do worse.
@@andrewbrand200 He's a kid. Even grown men punch walls. Its better to hit the wall than hit his mom. Where's his dad or male figure? He needs a man in his life. He needs therapy not jail
@@mailainathrone8241 you punch walls when you have the emotional control of a child. My father punched walls because he never learned any better.
I don't think Morris is a bad guy he just needs a little help with his issues
He does seem like a good kid with issues!
Poor little fella. My heart hurts for him. I hope he can pull through. I love how his mom is supporting him.
*Amen.*
I love how chill and supportive his mom is. What a wonderful mother. No anger at him at all. Just wants him to get help
When he started crying when he said he was crazy I felt that. Use that energy in a positive way and you can change this whole world Morris. 💜
How??
Dat shit sad
*Amen.*
Kids yelling out for help no one's hearing him
OMG EXACTLY!!!!! Kids don’t know how to express themselves properly. adults have to help them be better communicators and give them unconditional support!!! Don’t just throw them away for others to care for!
The lady rude asf 🤦🏽♂️ “you said enough”
She pissed me off
She was making me so mad
I was looking for this comment! I agree she should be working with adults, not children!
NASTY!
The lady IS rude*
Literally witnessed this my entire life with my brother.. he really put my mom & family through a lot. I commend Morris’ Mother. Tough love, she can only do what she’s able to to do. I really hope he’s well mentally and on a better path.
honestly he is lucky that he was given the opportunity to learn this young
the opportunity, bro this is on his record and you don't get this time back.
We as men, specially black men, really need to step up to the plate, and start being fathers to our children. We don't mind the responsibility of laying down with a woman, but some of us don't want the responsibility of being a father. And that's sad! I wish this young man well.
Right On Bro ! †
Good on you. All men need to prepare for those responsibilities when laying with a woman.
@@wes5150. This is so true. Our children need fathers
You are absolutely right
U hit it on the head brother. It’s to many blackmen that fail our children over and over and over. A boy needs daily discipline of a (strong) man. I have 4 boys so I know, a woman just doesn’t have the know how (they try) of dealing with a boy’s maturity, discipline and structure. A girl needs her father for guidance, protection and an example of a man I know that as well I have a daughter. This is the demise of so many young black boys and black girls. Peace bro
For him to say it feel different when I cry, speaks volumes this kid is hurting and has a ton of weight on his shoulders.
They’re talking to him like he’s a pet. I just don’t understand.
The U.S. justice system fails us all.
Her son is her TWIN.... as a mom this just ate my heart alive !!!!!
My heart is breaking....I have such a soft spot for children like him...he just needs some guidance, someone to talk to that won't judge him or be angry with him. He is savable.
He later ran away from the program he was sentenced to, and then he later on committed other crimes including 1st degree armed robbery at went to adult prison (he was obviously at least 18). I think he has shitty parents - or parent - and he has absolutely no desire to be a decent person. You might as well save your heart.
His mom is a beautiful soul, allowing her child to cry without hesitation and ensuring him his family
will be there for him is sooo important. I know the criminal justice system fails more individuals than expected, juveniles being a large percentage of those individuals.
Who else is watching this high af on “marijuana”
just finished a fat joint of runtz 🥳
Bout to go pick up a quarter and watch it high lol
Just got done smokin 🤚😂...late as hell
And a perc
😂😂 free the guys
His mother is how my mother is with my 17 year old brother who also struggles with anger and smokes and feel like everyone thinks he's crazy but there truely just misunderstood and some love and support goes a long way along with a therapists and family is everything . I pray morris get it right ❤️
You can tell that the probation officer don’t like him 😂
The probation officer is giving him the tough love he is missing..
Jail isn't the answer for everyone. The law isn't right ALL the time. Most people don't care about your WELL being.
@Johnny Lindsey Jail is rarely right for kids, especially for kids who are making stupid mistakes and decisions with no victims involved. Thankfully, some states have changed how they handle juveniles and the number of kids in juvenile detention centers has dropped since we first started filming these stories. But there's still a lot of work ahead. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you'll stay tuned for more.
There should be a law preventing any child from going to jail or prison. Our prison system doesn't help adults, what makes us think this is a good idea for child's who's brain hasn't fully developed until the age of 25???!!
@@sondrabuonadonna so if a teenager kills somebody they shouldn't goto prison eh? Get real. The consequences for someone's actions has to fit the crime. I don't think children should be locked up like adults but, there are certain
circumstances where it's absolutely necessary. Don't be daft
@@sondrabuonadonna my friend is 15 and she got 10 years
@@CalamariProductions he got locked up for smoking and skipping skl
That poor baby and his mama. Mental health is so important with children. So many people are punished instead of helped. Prayers for this little man and his family
Seeing Morris cry made me cry. I pray that this young man is on the right path🧡🧡. You’re not crazy Morris, you are loved.
The fact that he cried, showed me that Morris is asking for help and he doesn't want to go through this situation. He need someone to help him. I pray that everything will be okay for Morris. I hate to see people go through bad situations and it's sad. Made me cried when he cried. Seeing people go through stuff like this is just sad. So sad. We need the Lord every second in our lives. Every second and everyday.❤✨🙏
I feel bad for the kid. He’s def not crazy, I agree. He just needs help.. hopefully things are looking up for him now.
I cried too 😔
That mother son talk broke my heart
I died at 14:53. The way the prosecutor asks him, " Well, when do you tthhhsssmoke?!" 😂😂😂
I don’t see anybody really fighting for this child.. he needs a counselor, or even a big brother who can understand him and get him through this path. Putting him locked away will ONLY make him angrier
He needs a father.
Any update on him
@@strongmomtweety3124 this video is 13 years old. I hope he’s alive and doing better
I know these kids need love that's why they act up to began that's why I wish I knew him lord I would fight it hurts my heart
I love how supportive the mom is about the whole situation he’s in
A teenager punches the wall so yu put him in jail?? N tell him he need medicne ..y do that to your kid??
She’s nods her head each time they say keep him in jail
His mother terrible 🤦🏾♂️
the mom should say everything to get him back she digging him in the hole she stupid
That shit is not supportive
When he said I’m going crazy , had me feeling sum way that’s how i be feeling
Stg cuz
Thought I was the only one
me too
She is an AMAZING mommy. My God. What an angel. So much love. So much wisdom.
In his full interview he said he is angry bc he watched his mother get beat as a child...lord I pray for him and his family...people don't understand trauma
He’s trynna do better but they making him seem like a criminal
His mom called cops on him and charged him for punching holes in her wall. She felt it was better that he’s in jail. Some people say prison is the fastest way to receive mental health care..... unfortunately that mom just doesn’t know what to do anymore
I've cried the same cry and said the same thing sitting in many psych wards. 💔 Love you, Morris.
This made me so emotional. I want to just hug him. I pray he gets the help he needs. 🧡
Thanks for commenting, @JUST JESSIKUH. Check out our Community page and you'll find regular updates on the kids you see here, including Morris.
This is why every boy needs his father! his mother is absolutely amazing.
When The Mother Said “I’ll Try”... 😞 It Made Me Both Sad & Angry! He’s A Child, Let’s Fight Harder For Our Children
She knew if she said it that way that he wouldn't be able to go home
Right to me her saying dat made matters worse
i was saying the same thing she kinda weird for that
His mother has a beautiful spirit
That one Karen prosecuter must get such joy out of her life trying to lock up children for as long as possible
I think he has a good mom. His problem is he has no father.
That’s a lot of our problems
Haha.
He has a father, he was in court with his mom
but is HE the fault of his father not being in his life?
Yeah no this ain’t it....
I wonder how this prosecutor sleeps at night. Every video I've seen her in she's aggressive, unforgiving, and seems focused on the conviction, not the consequences. She's been doing it so long, all she sees is evil.
This hit home I was him when I was a kid and the system doesn't work. He's screaming for help but they're not hearing him. They should do a follow up, I would love to see how he is doing
He went back to prison recently.
It’s sucks being locked up especially at a young age
oh well..dont do stupid shit
@@specialopssoldier1 mistakes happen
@@specialopssoldier1 u can say that cause u don’t live everyone else life bro no one asks to go there
U ain't lying
He doing wat all kids age do and isn't violent but yall gonna keep locked up with dangerous kids
He did punch a whole in the wall and damage property. Plus the people who he is hanging put with are in gangs. Not to mention it seems that he may have a drug dependency. That being said, he should have never been sent to custody. He needs treatment.
Exactly!!!! Worst decision ever.
Isn't violent? I think punching holes in walls is violent. It's just a matter of time before he starts having victims
I dont think they were going to send him to placement for 2 years for smoking weed. That was just how they caught him after he didn't go to court for whatever his initial charges were that got him the 2 years
Speak for self because I never did any of what he does/did.
Little dude looks naturally stressed
One thing I respect is he never put his hands on his mom matter how mad he got
It makes me cry because my son was troubled, and still he anger issues. He is 12, and has been doing a lot better with his emotional and social issues. I see my son when I look at Morris. I remember my son saying “I’m crazy” and crying like that when he was 6 and 7 years old. I pray that God will deliver Morris from his anger, and is violent tendencies and his tendency to lie. Jesus, please met him where he is right now, and lay his path straight. I know this is not the road you have carved out for him Father, so I pray that you will rid him of all and any evil spirits. FLEE FROM HIM SATAN, you hold no dominion over his life and his plans! In Jesus name, I pray and give thanks in advance. Amen.
Christ that is very scary
I feel bad for Morris, hopefully he’s found his way.
Thanks for watching and commenting @Dustin Jolley. Morris struggled for quite awhile and ended up going to prison for robbery. He got out in 2015. We hope to bring everyone the update to his story in the months ahead. Hope you'll stay tuned for more ahead.
We need that update foreal !
@@CalamariProductions was he on any other show b4 this cause I swear I seen him b4 wen he was young and he hit his mom or sum and I think it was on maury
Amen
@@CalamariProductions y does she get him locked up for punching a wall??? Smoking weed not even a crime..we watching a black kid get his life messed up this not cool
Did anyone else experience the spiritual boost from his Mother's encouragement? Her parents named her correctly. She is that boy's guardian angel and with her guidance I pray Morris finds inner peace and self love.
A good heart trapped with pain can lead to a lifetime of destruction. I pray this young man gets the right help ❤️💛💚
Wow , I love Morris' lawyer . The man really cares and it shows in how he communicates and relates to Morris. Best wishes to Morris
That woman who was questioning Morris over the marijuana better have a squeaky clean toxicology record. I feel for the young man, maybe someone hurt him some time ago and he's just doing what he knows. I wish him & his family well.
It’s most likely his dad that hurt him, angry cuz he’s never around
His mother does not really want him to go home. She really wants him to get help.
She scared of him
Jail is not the answer trust me. From the moment you're done with booking. Worse part of life
@@moblack5883 no she is not... she’s scared FOR him and his safety.
Absolutely, u could tell she’s had a rough time with him and didn’t want to say it. I’m sure she didn’t want him to think she was giving up on him. Ughhh him saying he was going crazy broke my heart.
At home he will keep getting in trouble.
Man I wish I could sit with him. Just listen to em. These boys need ears and a heart
God bless him
The fact that woman shut down the little hope he had in that hearing and spat negativity into the room, ugh man I hate the system 😑
This kid needs to feel loved and looked after ..not all of us come from a loving nurturing home but with just a little thought and compassion this young man can be somebody.. unfortunately the system will chew you up and spit you out ..i hope he learns to love himself ..💞
A MILLION TIMES YES!!! YES YES YES YES YES!!
He is going to get all the love soon enough believe that!
He literally got alot of love from his mother, he had a mother that cared and he took advantage of it and now look, hes a felon in and out of prison as an adult
“Where ever you go, we coming”. Powerful words from a mom!
this broke my heart in so many ways.
He's a emotional kid. They go send him to prison. SAD
@darnell724 Yes, Morris definitely had some deep rooted emotional issues. The judge originally had him placed at a treatment facility. Years later, he was arrested for robbery and spent time in prison. He was released in 2015. Appreciate you watching and commenting
It’s sad ! Prison is not always the answer! People go to prison and still get out on the same thing
@@CalamariProductions When was this recorded
I'm certain momma is to blame for this
@@shonuffizhere5670 why not the father or the lack there of

wow I am so happy to I found your channel, I love watching prison documentaries, but your stories hits different, thank you

What a great mom this kid was blessed with. 😇🙏🏼
That baby boy need more leadership guidance jail makes them worse not the place smh
Morris got me crying 😢
Stg 😂
“i feel different when i cry” best feeling ever!
Poor dude i remember feeling “crazy” at that age . Things always get better keep ya head up
Yeah, I'm really concerned about this kid. I hope he gets it together.
So right from the start, the intake lady seemed like she wanted Morris to have additional charges. He already has a warrant, and he didn't appear in court. Why does he need more charges?
His Mother is SO positive. She said something very important: Getting help is a positive thing. There's nothing wrong with medication. Far too many times, men, and especially young men, get told that crying or asking for help is a weakness. It takes far more strength to ask for help when you need it, than to stay silent.
He has so much bottled inside, and he needs to get the help that's being offered. He ran away, and now the placement won't take him back. He truly needs some help before he ends up in an adult prison.
Thanks for your comment, @Joker WonderWoman. You're right -- it takes much more strength to ask for help than it does to bury it all inside. We see a lot of kids who go through depression, anger, etc. Finding programs for kids BEFORE they end up in the system is always best, but some kids have little support or knowledge on how to get the help they need. The juvenile courts are designed for care, treatment and rehabilitation. It doesn't always work that way, but that's the goal. Morris struggled over the years. He ended up serving time in prison for robbery but was released in 2015. We hope to feature more updates in the months ahead. Thanks again for watching and commenting. Greatly appreciated.
@@CalamariProductions I was hoping he got it together before going into prison, but I'm looking forward to the update you do. Thank you
Yep, I noticed that. And he was found because he was smoking pot. I wonder how many white kids they bring in for pot or loitering? Not many, know that!
Medicine is not the answer.
Talk to us sis .
That boy be crying. He needs help and I believe in him he knows whats good n bad. He doesn’t need a father a mother can provide the two needs. Just with the right help he can do it.
Bro he punched a wall?? She trying to get him medicated this evil
Facts she cldnt be my mom tf
Nah some mother’s can. Not all of them. I can admit living with my dad changed me for the good. It was structure and rules. Living with my mom I could do whatever whenever. Was failing school and everything until I moved with my dad!
My heart breaks for little man! Stay up Young King
Poor baby! You are not going crazy and you are not crazy! You are a handsome young man with your whole life ahead of you. Kids don’t ask to be here and I think we need to have more sympathy for them. We all were kids once! A lot of kids suffer from traumatic events and a lot of kids have a hard time dealing with the emotional trauma. Get down to the root of things, and help. Kids act out! He need some Counseling, therapy, and love. His demeanor is so laid back and cool. He is misunderstood and need a lot more love and some therapy. ❤️❤️❤️ Your life matter young man! 💕
His mother is beautiful and understanding! Bless her heart for being patient and not giving up on this young man. ❤️
He admitted he did wrong and owned up to his problems, she just wanna cook young dude
Wtf even the mother wasn't sure. You just just want to hate someone
Bra fr
If he really is being held for punching a wall? What the hell is this.
@Fireshwater Sailing He was arrested for smoking week and a bench warrant for failing to appear in court. He was just explaining to his mom that his anger gets the best of him and he punches walls when he's mad.
@@CalamariProductions well. They could not prove he was actually smoking weed at that moment.
All they could do was prove he had it in his system. That could have been from weeks ago.
Was he prob smoking weed that day? Sure. But....they cant legally prove that.
And....they're gonna send him away for TWO YEARS for missing a court date and pissing dirty for weed!!!???
THAT IS INSANE
@@jlcollins7673 they were talking about sending him away for 2 yrs before this which is why he didn’t appear in court which made him have a warrant. If he would have went to court he wouldn’t of had a warrant. They didn’t say why he went to jail the first time to make them want to send him away for 2 years.
OMG HE PUNCHED A WALL AND SMOKED WEED LOCK HIM UP !!!!! THIS IS RIDICULOUS SMH WASTE OF TIME
@@jlcollins7673 Him having smoked weed or not, was legally neither here nor there. It was merely the pretext for him coming into contact with police, along with his friends. He was taken into custody solely because there was a bench warrant out for his arrest. He was tested for drugs at the hospital because the juvenile facility will not process in youths who are under the influence. His positive test was not being used as evidence to prosecute him in court. This is all made abundantly clear in the episode so I'm not sure what you're going off the deep end about.
His mother is not being totally honest about his childhood and actions He needs a strong family structure and love .It's not enough that she can give .
The kid needs love this kid don’t need no strictness fr
Anger is a natural emotion, and you see stuff like this, where we are told to repress everything. This young man needs an emotionally nurturing mother. That is my take on this. I've been thru the same path as him
My thoughts exactly
When he said it feels different when I cry, I haven’t cried in so long and his mother reassured him that it’s okay to cry. That healed a place in my soul I didn’t know need it. I feel like as black people we are conditioned to be so tough skinned and not express our emotions for fear of being misunderstood. I see a lot of me in this young man. I wish him all the best ❤
@Jinella - Thank you for watching and posting that comment. That moment during Morris' visitation was a real moment for everyone on our team too when it happened. It was such a simple yet profound statement. We hope it helps show the many layers of these stories when it comes to kids and families. Thank you again for watching.
Sad the system is treating him like a Adult prisoner, this is only developing his mind to hate authority..
Someone needs to humble that prosecutor
You mean she not to do her job ?
his mom is so caring it's very nice she loves him now do the right thng boy
I feel so sorry for him with his mental issues and I'm grateful he has such a great mother. 🌷. I feel it getters better for him and he gets the aid he needs.
His mother is incredible. He has sooo much support from his mom. She is the definition of a mother that loves her son. ❤
What a great mother, gave him away to the system🤡 A real mama gon say whatever she gotta say to get her son home then discipline him herself. But you a white man so yall used to working wit them ppl
These young people need someone who cares for them and can guide them. We used to send our kids to church or have big brothers big sisters but now the internet and the gang raises them. My heart goes out to these youth.
@Truth_Soldier 91 Thanks for your conern for the kids we feature in our videos. We definitely see gang influence in some cases, but it also goes deeper, as you allude to. Ultimately, kids need hope, opportunity and support. Not all have it, which is why programs like Big Brothers/Sisters and many others are a great safety net to keep kids out of trouble. We'll be bringing everyone videos addressing these things in the months ahead. Hope you'll stay tuned for more!
I agree with your point about the internet raising them.
The internet is also responsible for taking away a whole lot of patents.
Parents who would rather stick their nose in their phone that do the most important job in the world...being a mama or dad!!
As far as gangs go....that is not new. One of the many reasons Big Bros/Sisters was founded to help keep kids from feeling that gang life was their only option.
There were other options in this case. I think locking him up was the worst decision ever.
I agree. I was busy with church and had a great time with friends at church.
HOLD ON YOUNG MAN., THIS TO SHALL PASS, MORRIS YOUR IN MY PRAYER.
when he said "Im going crazy....I know im crazy" I felt that I hope he doing good tho😔❤️
I cried watching him talk to his mother. I have a 13 year old son and I would melt into my death if he told me he thought he was crazy. 😢 His mom is so strong. ❤
@vanessamonico9844 - it was a difficult conversation to watch but such an important one. Appreciate you taking the time to watch his story and comment.
@@CalamariProductions absolutely 💯
Bruh i feel his pain especially when he was crying to his mom
I served 17 years and 3months. They don't give us the same chances. I hope it gets better for him and the family.
