But as time passed, David discovered the other side of Thurston Crow, the ex-con with his own code of ethics that justified cruelty, violence, lies--even murder. Intimidating David with beatings, Thurston coerced his son into doing his criminal bidding. David's mom, too mentally ill to care for her children, couldn't protect him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough sheer determination, and with the help of a few angels along the way, David managed to get into college and achieve professional success.
