@anunnyfose We all screw up. Nobody is perfect. Sometimes it happens to be in another geographical location.

Tim, There IS a cure for HIV. Go to my Facebook page: Debra Duffy.

After viewing, go to the video's webpage, because you must have a certain blood type of donor. Best of luck to you and your wife.

@vernonclassic wow i have a whole batch of vicodin that i never used that i got after a surgery and at the stupid suggest of a friend i was gonna start dealing them but i would feel to guilty about ruining people's lifes thank god that stayed a stupid suggestion and not a reality

[Pinkfacedmonkey02]

@vernonclassic That's because Suboxone is stronger than Vicodin, but has no withdrawl. I ate a bottle of 30 Vicodin 1000's and didn't even feel it. Suboxone used to work for me when I had a small habit. Now it just makes the sickness worse. My point is Suboxone doesn't work for people with serious habits. Also kicking Methodone is worse than kicking dope. Methodone is a scam.

I am glad to see that he got out and finally learned his lessons. It's not that I feel sorry for him but his mom. But he got what he deserved and was just unlucky for him that he got arrested thailand. In western countries, drug charges are just few years or small fine. In asia, drugs are much much more serious. You'll be lucky if you don't get death sentence. Anyway, I hope his HIV treatment is going well. Hope that he uses his 2nd chance to help people, not destroying people's lives.

suboxone!!!!!!!!!!! i was addicted to vicoden 750's for two years after my parents death and i quit in 20 minutes.........thanks to suboxone....it really was a stupid thing to get into....by the way, weeks of speaking to people like you guys on youtube also helped............you guys might think its funny, either way i thank you all.-../28/married/florida

The war on drugs is a complete and utter failure. Supply and demand will never be stopped.

"It numbed the pain HUGELY."

Damn right. Opiates are like fuckin' magic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rachel14604]

@HolyDiver6288 Good point. I was actually feeling bad for him until I saw your comment. He was arrested because he sold heroine in Thailand to f*ck up others' lives.

@samsuor I'm sure Cambodians end up in Thai prison from time to time.

[lillypad3320]

Where can I watch the full show? I tried clicking on the link but it won't show the whole thing just two 4 minute videos. ugggh!

[soniafl1]

where is the whole story to this one????

[atlantico244]

like BillyL6 said, dont be an idiot, dont do stupid shit cause you might end up in prison. and dont do drugs. man he owes everything to his mom

[samsuor]

1:19 to 1:23 the background voice was in Cambodian, not Thai. That's weird.

[MattSaucee24]

they should make a movie of this...it'll be a great story it doesn't have to popular just one of those films that give you a dose of reality....

[AustinxRodriguez]

@BillyL6 Correct

[XxHitboyxX197]

Hookah is better!

[SINDYTS]

I wish the best of luck to the guy in this video. He seems like a good guy who made a few big mistakes.

[AlexJordan22]

@LeeLeeO82 That makes one of us.

[LeeLeeO82]

@AlexJordan22 I doubt he wants you to feel remorse for him. He probably feels very bad for what he did to his mom. He went to prison and under the conditions he got addicted to heroin... probably wasn't something he had planned on. People are human beings and no matter how bad a decision is you can see he is a good person. He feels bad for what he did and I am glad he got out.

[LeeLeeO82]

Why do people make fun of someone with HIV? Yes he shouldn't have shared needles and he did receive the consequences but why would you make fun of it? I actually felt really bad for him and mostly it was because people do stupid things and you don't have to be so rude to laugh about it. I am sure he realizes what he did. I felt so bad for him though...grow up people.

if you think about it, if you doing .. life... you'd o the same thing.
