I Smoked Myself Into a Crack Psychosis | 33 Felonies, 3 Raids, 40 Year Prison Sentence, Sobriety
Description
Richard's story is one of the most gripping tales of addiction, crime, and redemption ever told on this channel. By the age of 18, he had already served prison time for burglary. Over the next two decades, he racked up 33 felony convictions, became known as one half of the “Dynamic Duo” of cr@ck-addicted brothers in Palm Beach County, and lived in trap houses, behind shopping centers, and eventually a foreclosed home taken over by drug dealers and pr0stitutes.His downward spiral included multiple prison bids, including time in one of Florida’s most violent correctional facilities, a 40-year sentence served in pieces, and heartbreaking moments like watching his mother and siblings cycle through incarceration and addiction as well.But in 2016—after a final psychosis-fueled standoff in a motel—Richard made a decision to change his life. Almost ten years later, he’s clean, sober, employed, helping others, and back in touch with every family member who once cut him off. His story proves that even after decades of darkness, it’s never too late to rise above.
