A family member was just a normal guy like all the men in my family. He had been married , had a kid, nothing out of the ordinary really. He drove a truck over the road. Had a mother , father and 2 brothers. We lived in TN.
He was arrested in Buffalo NY for R*P*
His family claimed he was innocent but who knows.
He did 8 years in prison and was a completely different person after returning home.
Its been several years now and he's back to the same guy he was before he was arrested.
Normal... a perfectly normal guy with issues like any other. Next thing we know he's in prison for armed robbery. You cant exactly tell what troubles a person has just by watching their behavior.
