What kind of crimes were you committing?


Burglaries, armed robberies, stealing cars, dealing drugs. Did it all as a gang member of an East LA gang -- that's where I got started.


How did you manage to leave the gang life?


Got tired. Really tired. Asked God for help. He did -- can't explain it any other way. I tried to change many times before but always came back to my old life style.


Thanks for sharing this. A compelling story. I am glad you were able to survive and thrive. Inspiring stuff.
