Retired outlaw, old buddy of mine. When I say outlaw, I mean a guy who has always had his hands in criminal activity. Nothing violent, although he’s not one to fuck with, but just literal high dollar dope and gun related crime. Spent some time a few times in federal prison on related convictions . Dude is living under the radar, working, making his way while being clean and not doing any criminal stuff. His wife split and took his five kids to Idaho some years ago, but as he’s been doing better, his kids, now young adults, come to do see him on the reg and one of them moved in with him, she’s 22 now.
Daughter apparently stabbed one of her fathers friends, I don’t know anymore than that, like twelve times, left him for dead. She went on the run and was found two days later, dead from apparent suicide. I haven’t seen him or any of those kids in 14+ years, but man, what a bad trip. Dude is trying to do the best he can and his kid fucks up and rather than face the music, she whacks herself. He’s in a world of shit right now and while I don’t really communicate with anyone from my past, I can get to him through my sister.
Just feeling for muh old homeboy. Probably can’t help much from here.
If only people are instructed from a young age on the merit of integrity, hard work and honesty they would pass such a rich inheritance to their children. Truly wealth and prosperity lies in moral values, precious moments shared and valued. What a sad outcome. I pray he uses it as a launching pad not a blow to the face.
