If that guy didn’t have a mother like her, there ain’t no way he would have made it to 50. He would have been dead a long time ago.
It was a tough decision for her to make but you know what it's the right one he can go get and turn his life around. A mother's love is a mother's love she'll do just about anything for their children. The man should be thankful that he has a mother.
Heartbreaking
He is so lucky..my family all turned their back on me. Not that they were ever really there for me in the first place.
I wish my parents will still be alive when im 50 tbh
Time to grow up sir
There are more drugs inside of jail than outside. We really need a system for rehabilitation for drug addicts. Most rehabs are expensive even with insurance. Let’s make it affordable.
She needs to press charges. Its called tough love. ðŸ‘Å
Racist ?
Poor woman. I hope that her son sees the light at the end of the tunnel. He's blessed to have a beautiful mother. I know it broke her heart. But, she needed to show the tough love. In order for her son to realize he needs to get his life together. May God bless both of them.
Awww
This made me cry this poor mother.😢😢 I Hope we see him in a future video drug free💜
That poor mama. ðŸ˜Â
Jail for Crack but rehab for opioids! Hmmmm? I wonder why.
50 YEARS OLD STILL DOING DRUGS, HUGE MOUNTAIN TO CLIMB. WISH HIM THE BEST.
Tough Love…ðŸ™ÂâœÂï¸Ââ¤ï¸ÂðŸÂ€
wonderful and caring police officers !!!!!!!
Jail is not where these people should be going. It’s a never ending cycle for profit.
It makes me so sad to his mom so hurt over her son’s actions. From a former addict, I have to live with the guilt for the rest of my life that I hurt my parents. That’s all this mom wants for him and he fails to see it. I hope he gets help and seriously commits to sobriety.
I’ve always hated seeing mothers cry over their kids decisions. I’ve made my mother cry from my own dumb decisions it sucks. I love my mom I’m grateful I have her.
How you gonna make ya mamma cry like that, man?!?!
god i would kill to have a mom that is so caring AND understanding cant believe he's just throwing that back in her face
robb reminds me of an off-brand sticks
seeing the elderly cry is just heartbreaking
That poor momma, bless her, she loves her son and he has a disease, drug addiction. I hope he got the help he needed and is making things right with this sweet Momma again. Sometimes people just need a hand up instead of locked behind a cell.
50.. Cut his life in half?
Hes past most averages.
The cop sound like he high
For those complaining about sending him to jail. I've worked is psych hospitals and had to take care of detoxing patients. I've sat with my bestfriend and watched her mom overdose on heroin, smoke crack, and die in front of my bestfriend TWICE. My own friends have done it. I always told my bestfriend the same thing. It's better to send them to jail, because at least in jail they won't be overdosing like they do out on the streets. Sometimes instead of jail you'll even be sent to a rehab center.
officially want a police husband cause wow
"I think the best thing is for you guys to follow through with this". . They are coercing her into pressing charges against him!! That's illegal!
I love how he says “to stop your drug problem you should go to jailâ€Â
