  1. For those of you who want to know what happened…John is going to serve 4 months of boot camp, some of you disagree and that is fine…..keep in mind this kid is only 19 and I really hope he will use this time to reflect on his life and his choices in friends…he could do so much better and I know he could be a better person then what he surrounds himself with. I also would hope that his family would send him to a different state once he gets out…so he has a chance to make it and a chance to change. Good luck to you John there are people who do believe in you!!
