A kid this smart and strong should have the opportunity to make something out of himself.<br /><br />I hope the powers that be steer him in that direction and someone helps him get ready to have a better life when he gets out.car54https://www.blogger.com/profile/08917655110224786571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-37995311599116027632011-12-17T14:56:12.363-08:002011-12-17T14:56:12.363-08:00Wow...

That was written into his plea agreement.<br /><br />From what the judge said Colton's childhood was a nightmare with his mother and some of his behavior started from just being starving and breaking into vacation homes looking for food.<br /><br />I think he got such a stiff sentence becuase he made such a mockery of so many law enforcement groups that couldn't catch him and the social media turning him into an anti-hero didn't help either.timebob https://www.blogger.com/profile/03570336574189387954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-68510900331074785792011-12-17T11:59:47.700-08:002011-12-17T11:59:47.700-08:00Wow!! - Nevermind my previous statement.
I just r...Wow!! - Nevermind my previous statement.<br /><br />I just read the Wiki page on Colton and it's just very sad. He father was a drug addict/prisoner and tried to choke him when he was 12. His stepfather died when he was 7 and his mother was abusive/drunk. His neighbors called CPS for him several times. It says that when he was a young boy, he began to live in the woods to avoid his mother/home.<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colton_Harris-Moore<br /><br />I REALLY hope now he has a chance to turn his life around and make a better one for himself. He seems very smart (taught himself how to fly the planes by reading manuals!)evergreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15179749197836686371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-43175192681489054482011-12-17T11:52:01.941-08:002011-12-17T11:52:01.941-08:00Hmm, maybe it's wrong of me, but if I was his ...Hmm, maybe it's wrong of me, but if I was his mother, I'd be secretly proud. That's one crafty kid. And if I recall, he didn't hurt anyone, just stole the planes and boats that were empty. I do think he deserves the punishment that he got and I too am pulling for him to make good use of his skills and talents - but as a momma - I'd still quietly smug.evergreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15179749197836686371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-4542285293704332682011-12-17T11:01:06.487-08:002011-12-17T11:01:06.487-08:00I already saw this movie and Leo did it better. ;)...I already saw this movie and Leo did it better. ;)He must have a lot of street smarts and charm.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03460678344329825983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-22861610602447291632011-12-17T10:43:16.937-08:002011-12-17T10:43:16.937-08:00if this kid can use his intelligence in a construc...if this kid can use his intelligence in a constructive way, i'm pulling for him. his fucking mother's the one who should really be in prison. i'm not excusing what he did, but at least he didn't murder or rape anyone. get your shit together, colton. i'm on your side if you can do that.nancerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08639993353861983758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-66101981027309719922011-12-17T10:18:31.311-08:002011-12-17T10:18:31.311-08:00I will buy this guy's book, sure he was breaki...I will buy this guy's book, sure he was breaking laws but I bet its all one hell of a story.brendalove@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00871065462462122312noreply@blogger.com
