then we started dating, and then she came out pregnant.

That changed me.

When I held Genesis, that's when it hit me, like,

holy sh*t, I'm a father.

[laughter]

They're acting like total fools on the bus.

[vocalizing]

[Alexis] Did you just press that?

Oh.

[indistinct chatter]

[Alexis] Put this on the side and sit right.

Here.

Jesus Christ, y'all act like

you've never been on a bus before.

How much do you think this lawyer,

how much does the lawyer cost?

A lawyer can't be more than $20,000.

Twenty, thirty thousand dollars.

For murder?

I don't need it for murder, I just need it

to get my name out of the situation.

No, no, no, this is a murder charge.

[Harley Breite] Okay...

So, you realize

your whole entire future is at stake here.

You get that, right? So here's what I'm going to do.

I'm going to save you from all of this.

Now, you want to know, Harley, how much is my freedom worth?

Yeah, I can't put a price on your freedom.

But here's the deal.

You want the best, you're here, I'm the best.

Someone shot a bullet through my house

and it wasn't very nice.

This is a Benelli M4 tactical.

Scope, lights, everything.

Red dot laser.

Light with the laser.

You know, it becomes an issue when you're walking around

and people recognize you, and gang members

are upset with you because maybe you lost a trial,

and their gang member friend blames you.

This is small for the home.

[light dramatic theme playing]

Why did I decide to leave?

Because I'm scared to be here.

And because I need my kids to be raised somewhere else.

Not here, it's too much going on here.

Scary.

I want them to be able to play outside...

...without me having to worry about getting them

getting hurt or somebody's coming for us, you know?

So I'd rather just leave and leave everything behind.

As long as they're good, I'm good.

I don't want to lose another one.

Florida is ready for you.

Or you're ready for Florida.

-[laughter] -Really.

-Are you excited? -You're gonna be fine.

Yeah.

-Are you? -Yeah.

Really? Like you're not gonna miss--

Yeah, I'll gonna miss you guys.

-Oh, you guys. -Us guys.

But you're not gonna miss the dump.

-No. -Not at all.

It stinks.

[Alexis] I look at it as

being a blessing.

It's a new beginning, it's a new start.

This, out here, this town is just devastating.

Everywhere she turns, it's a memory.

Everywhere she turns, she hears,

"Okay, there was a shootout here."

Or something happened here.

And it's like, no 11-year-old should grow up like that.

[male bailiff] All rise.

[Judge] All right, good morning,

please be seated.

All right, hearing the matters

of March state versus March the entity,
