And people told me that in my city, my dad, along with his crew, were part of the reason why they put that in there, because he was doing so many taxi robberies at that point.

And it sucks because, like I said, he was a very talented guy, very hardworking, anti-drugs for a lot of time.

Then his cousin gets him into some stuff.

And, you know, the rest is history.

He ends up, you know, I'll jump ahead here just about him, and then we'll go back into the other dynamics.

But he ended up passing away a couple of years ago during COVID.

And as far as I know, it was an overdose.

So he had been doing heroin probably from his 30s up until almost 60 years old, which you can imagine takes a toll on the body, right?

Yeah.

Any of those guys that get heavy into it, their body just gets completely depleted.

He used to be like, he's like me, he's about 5'7", 5'8", but he was always a jacked guy.

He always, you know, he had that jailhouse build, right?

All upper body, nothing below.

But then, you know, with the heroin, he just looked like a twig.

I saw him once.

in those like 16 or 17 years, sorry, twice.

One was at my mother's funeral.

And then another time was right before I got into all the crime that I was doing.

We tried to reconnect and he was just gone.

Like having a conversation with him, it was sad because I could tell that he, it was almost like he had an intellectual disability.
