“That Marvin is alive to tell his heart-wrenching story is a miracle,” – Shaun Attwood, true crime author/YouTuber
Harrowing, heart-breaking and often horrific were the challenges that confronted Marvin after his birth in prison. Born in distress, Marvin was wrenched from his drug-addicted parents and deposited into an orphanage. Mistreatment led to him wetting the bed, for which his tyrannical adoptive father would rub Marvin’s face in the urine-soaked sheets.
Only 11-years-old, he was taken by an older boy to a predator’s house and abused.
By his late teens, drugs and crime were a way of life. While in the throes of crack addiction, he was shot, stabbed, beaten with weapons including a spiked ball on a chain, and kidnapped by gangsters and mauled by their dangerous dogs, which left terrible scars all over his body.
In this inspirational memoir, Marvin searches for his birth parents and battles his crack addiction with the help of the woman he loves, determined to start a family and to live his life crime and drug free.
