April 2004: A suspected BMF member named Jabari Hayes is stopped on a Missouri highway for the second time in a month. Police find nearly $600,000 in his vehicle the first time, and nearly $9 million worth of cocaine the second.
Inspiration behind the project:
The inspiration behind the making of Miles in the Life was to humanize individuals society may label as a criminal. More often than not, a documentary tells about an individual or organization whom engaged in criminal activity, specifically drug dealing. The people involved are usually depicted as the worst type of people walking the face of the earth, which is the furthest from the truth. Despite Jabari's upbringing making him predisposed to a certain type of future, Jabari defied the odds by getting his college degree and becoming a successful businessman. As a member of Black Mafia Family, Jabari maintained his core beliefs of honesty, integrity and managed to never become violent despite being in a world that breeds violence at every turn. More importantly, after paying his debt to society, today, Jabari Hayes is again a successful businessman and now a law abiding citizen.
