00:00My father was an angry man.
00:03That's all I ever remembered, that's all I was ever told.
00:11I'm not a bad person, I'm just like him.
00:18This charge carries an automatic two year minimum sentence.
00:23I am part of all I have met.
00:28Are you family?
00:30I'm his teacher.
00:32If anyone, I can call.
00:37Where was the foster home you were staying at before?
00:41I wasn't in a foster home.
00:44I was living in my car.
00:51You have a convicted felon living with you.
00:55What exactly do you know about this kid?
00:58We have got to get you back in school.
01:00Why? To show him I'm a con?
01:02I'm a poor little homeless boy? I'm a charity case?
01:04To make you feel good? What?
01:06This is your only chance with the judge.
01:08I can't do this. Everyone here is against me.
01:10Why did you lie to me? I can't see you anymore.
01:12Tina!
01:18You can't afford to blow it anymore!
01:20I don't care!
01:22You know what happens when this gets in front of the judge.
01:26Whether it's something your dad did to you or your mom didn't do,
01:28you have got to deal with it.
01:30I can't do this.
01:45This isn't good for you.
01:47There's a good kid there.
01:50It's my fault what he did.
01:52It wasn't your fault.
01:59We know this isn't a level playing field.
02:02Some kids are born behind the eight ball.
02:05We're lying to them when we say everything is going to work out just fine.
02:14But don't those kids deserve the same chance as the others?
02:19We fight to the end.
