I hope this guy can get cleaned up and make a better life for himself.

Tony what you did for your sister makes you a hero in my eyes. So many children get molested and no one does anything. I wish you luck in your future.

This heroin addict has better life advice than most career coaches... you can tell he’s a good dude.

Can't believe his sister doesn't talk to him after he saved he from a predator.

When this man said his younger sister doesn’t talk to him anymore broke me down. This man put his life on the line to protect his sister from the devil, now he battles demons everyday. I hope this man is doing well, true warrior for his love ones.

I have never watched someone speak to a large audience and give me the sensation they were speaking specifically to me. It was truly a life-changing experience to have someone so different from myself speak directly to the deepest parts of my consciousness. I have also never felt this level of compassion for a person convicted of a violent crime, he has opened my eyes to the grey areas of my moral compass.

This guy is going to beat this! He has amazing things to do!

Don't think heroin is out of his life just yet but I have 100% respect for him and wish him all the luck in the world.

I appreciate the testimony from this intelligent man. TD Jakes states that your past does not have to dictate the future. Sending prayers for healing, self forgiveness, and a fulfilling new chapter of life 🙏🏻

I respect anyone that takes matters into thier own hands when it comes to pedophiles. I hope his recovery was long and painful.

Tony you’re truly a great big brother, you saved your sister’s life. It’s a shame you’re sister isn’t in your life she should be thanking you! That molester messed up both of your life’s and I can’t imagine the pain you’re mom has had to go through bc of that monster! I so hope that you can eventually have the great life that you deserve. I know what you did in others eyes is wrong but what he was doing to your sister he had it coming. Tony I wish I would have had a big brother like you when I was being molested as a child. I totally get why you did what you did.

Don’t cheat on your future with your past

These documentaries are incredible so raw and so real they need to show these in schools .

I love that he protected his sister and fixed that sick bastard. I like him, he’s a good guy and I hope he gets his life together.

I feel like he’s hit so many good points. Living in the past has always been a weakness for me. I’ve been through so much. Sometimes I just feel like that scared little girl all over again. The anxiety gets to be too much sometimes and sometimes it’s daily. I’ve just done the best that I can to make sure that my kids don’t have a traumatic childhood. I would hate for them to ever have to relive the moments that I have.

Your brother spent 15 years in prison trying to protect you and you have the nerve not to speak to him

This guy is still young and has a lot of potential, prayers to him and everyone else 🙏

Everyone should hope to marry a woman that will grab the bleach and rubber gloves if it ever came time!

Interesting interview, likeable lad! Hope he reaches out to his daughter and gives her the choice whether to know him or not.

This my favorite channel love hearing these life stories especially because I’m young helps me guide my self to a better life me being 16 my life hasn’t really even started so just see these routes people have gone makes me want to make the right decisions.

I like this guy. He’s honest and smart. His Crime was brutal but hey, he was trying to protect his sister. She should be lucky she has a protective brother. But, he could have gone about it a different way but he did his time.

Just be honest with your daughter, tell her your story; so no one else does. My father passed away when I was thirteen, and now at thirty, I’m finding out that everything I thought my father was, he is not. It may not all be true, but i will never know. Talk to her, she may shut you out, but keep trying. You can’t rewrite your past,; However, you can make an amazing conclusion. Tell her the bad, the good, the ugly and the pretty. I found myself with a man just like my father; smh, or at least what I thought he was. I didn’t know the warnings; but if he had been honest with me, even at thirteen, maybe life would be different. I am now in a great career, and life is good from what it was. Talk to her, this is coming from a daughter to a father. Drugs, jail, and all the messed up things in between, my dad did that, and you know what? I still love him; I just wish he was honest with me, no matter how much it hurt him, because now I’m the one lost,hurt , and left to pick up the pieces of his past; so that I can understand my present.

went from an interview to a incredible story

" Stop wasting your todays on yesterdays." I felt that. Thank you Tony❤ You're the brother i never had :)

Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future, Tony. Take all your pain to The One you know can turn your situation around. God bless, you.

This dude is the man you want by your side on the streets

My favorite interview so far. Honest guy.

Man he was young when he fathered his first kid. 16. He’s still young. I’m 32 in a couple of days, 33 is nothing. As he said. Hopefully he can put all this behind him, and start bettering himself He’s got a good head on his shoulders.

Tony is one of my favorite people on this channel. I’ve watched his video several times. I hope he’s doing ok. He’s been thru some stuff!

This guy has so much potential. If nothing else, I hope he gets the chance to be part of his daughters life.

Coming from a former heroin addict.... he’s 10000000% not clean. If you have ever been there, you can tell just from someone’s voice if they’re on opiates. He’s probably on methadone or something

If Tony can see this message... I want him to know that he should reach out to his daughter. I grew up with my dad coming in and out of my life. There have been times where I didn't talk to my dad years at a time and the only thing I wished for was for my dad to call or come see me. I chose not to call him because I didn't want to interfere with his new life with his wife but all I wanted was for my dad to be around. His daughter can be feeling the same way and there's probably confused as to why he's not around. I wish Tony all the best and hope his relationship with his daughters work out.

I Love his Story ....I am a Prison Nurse...so I hear these types of stories all the time....His is so Honest!!!

He seems to have a real sweet spirit despite what he’s been through, I’m glad he’s able to kick the heroin habit. I wish him nothing but the best

It always baffles me how the ppl say how a parent wasn’t a part of their life and then they turn around and repeat the cycle. My parents wasn’t great but it just makes me want to be a better parent. Go see your daughter! She deserves to know who her father is! Give a chance to accept you for who you are!

Yes more longer videos i love it 💙

Tony did a lot of drugs. He has that permanent high talk.

Wow I loved this interview wish I could find him on social media to keep up with his story! 🙏🏻❤️

Whoa!!! I have never wanted a video to keep going so bad…out of all of Mark’s videos that I have watched, this one had my heart racing. Hanging on every word.

I usually just listen to these stories while I'm at work, so the longer the better. People are interesting and I appreciate you giving them a place to share.

Best interview so far!

Hope he gets better. I like him. Seems a good guy. Love from Ireland

These interviews are an incredible view into peoples lives, laying out all the broken pieces for us to see. I'm deeply humbled.

Very awesome guy you are Tony. That man deserved to be treated the way u treated him. Your sister is very blessed to have a brother who loves her the way you do. Your daughter will be super proud of you someday. I am understand the trials and tribulations of the drug world. You keep giving your testamony. You are helping so many people.

He is such a smart, intelligent, good looking guy...protecting his sister...his whole life changed....WOW.

Oh Tony, my heart goes out to you! You can change your life around! Even though u feel like u are at the lowest on the totem poll i still have respect for you and you deserve a new start/perspective in life.

I like tony! This guy is the most insightful and introspective participant I’ve listened to! He knows what he has to do, he’s just got to do it! I wish him the best! And I hope he can turn his life around! ❤️🙏🏾

Wise beyond his years. Im 39 and still trying to find my place fighting addiction and anger. I wouldn't substitute one addiction for another but if it works for you... When your sick and tired and ready to give up. GET UP!

I really like him. I don't know why. I could have listened to him all day. if you ever bump into him again tell him he has my support all the way from the UK ❤

So sad. It's not to late to get it right.

Tony is a hero. This story is so important because of how many prisoners with stories similar to his we have never or will never hear about. He did what many claim to be willing to do for their loved ones.

honestly this is one of my favorite videos. I love his views on life. I really hope the best for him.

I watch all of these. I've been with someone in this life, I am a nurse for this population, I get it, I've heard it as a woman to her man and nurse to patient- his story is one to share, learn, listen. No doubt he gets it, he had it, he has the understanding to change. I will def look for updates in a few months and hope he keeps on, you got this Tony.

Proud of you for being a good brother and protecting your sister! You are saying all the right things I pray that you can continue to better yourself . I think you should talk to your daughter! She will appreciate the honesty and vulnerability. Just gotta explain this is what I’m going through baby girl and I’m doing my best to better myself.

Love you both, man. This is brilliant. You’re doing incredible work Mark. Keep it up

What I've gleaned from this channel in general+this guy in specific as well: If we saw in ourselves what others see we are capable of, addiction would be trivialized for ~>90% of addicts.

I love this man. A true man, a warrior misguided by the system.

Get to know your daughter. Be there for her. Be present. Let her watch you grow as an individual. You are the only dad she has and the only dad she will ever have. She will judge you. She will be mad. In the end she will appreciate your effort more than your mistakes. Goodluck Tony. We all deserve a second chance. I hated my dad. Met him at 19, I’m now 24 years old and can’t picture my life w out him.

Enjoyed this story it has stuck with me. Thanks to Mark for uploading and Tony for telling it.

One of my favorite interviews. I really think this man has the strength to do better and create a great life for himself and to be a good father to his daughters 🤍 praying for you Tony

He has what it takes ! I’m praying for your strength 🙏🏾🙏🏾

Wow! I hope he finds his way back! I for sure will be having him in my thoughts 🙏🏽

It’s unfortunate that his sister won’t talk to him, he’s the real hero here and she needs to see that! He has a good heart he is a man of faith, and there’s nothing wrong with smoking weed!!! I wish you the best man

So many lost individuals and so smart! I pray for everyone that comes on your channel.

He's still using. No way he's been off heroine for 2 years.

Sounds like a cool guy at heart I hope he gets back on track I wish him all the best.

Another amazing testimony, Mark.

What a life you have lived through and only 33, goes to show how integrity and a positive outlook can carry us through some profoundly difficult circumstances. Thank you for sharing your amazing story and I hope you reunite with your daughter and have success in general.

tony seems like such a down to earth, genuine guy. he seems to be a super smart guy and be almost “enlightened’ in some aspects. I do hope he reaches out to his daughter, even if it’s been forever and even if he feels like he’ll mess her up he should like write her a letter yanno? to tell her he loves her and he supports her and he just wants to do what’s best for her. back to the point good luck Tony! i wish happiness and success to you ❤️

Guy shared some good ideas, beyond the scary, violent stuff. I thank him.

But still got the perfect fade hair cut.

This is my favorite interview. The honesty and realness..

If you notice when Mark asks these interviewees about their Parents, a lot of them will describe the age in which their family was dismantled and you can hear in their voice and the tales they tell that their life and intellect stopped at that point 😢

Tony you seem to be a stand up dude. Thank you for standing up for your sister..I hope you bounce back and get some sobriety. You can do it kid!! The prison will take your soul!! You made it out alive... take advantage! Best wishes!

Tony if you ever read this, you helped me today. Thank you. You have a gift for inspiring people. I wish you all the best. God bless you bro

I didn´t know.........THAT I NEEDED THIS - THANK YOU TONY! Thank you God for taking care of this man - so his story helps others too

He's got the knowledge. He's got to USE it. He can lead. Tony made me feel better. May God bless him.

Man I remember being on the streets and strung out hopeless wished death daily, jail and weights saved my mind, body, and spirit. There is a way out I wish this guy finds his way back

I love these people you bring to the worlds awareness. I'm always amazed at how different you feel after hearing their story.

This guy Tony get clean my man I could listen to your stories all day. You could make a killing on KZfaq. Life eventually is easier off drugs. I promise & speak from experience.

"Stop wasting your todays, with the problems of yesterday." It's so hard to not feel shit though...

This felt like a 5 minute interview. He's captivating. I would tell him to be in his daughter's lives, it's better to be there and have her make the choice to have a relationship with him, or not, than for him to hide because he's ashamed of himself.

He seems to have such a kind heart..remember it’s never to late for change!

What a genuine guy. I think he will end up really helping people.

Wow this young man has a heck of a story. Much love to him

I'm really pulling for this guy. C'mon Tony.

I’m so hopeful for Tony’s future!! Like quite a few of the people your spent time with! Tony keep Kobe’s speech in your head, man!!

I have faith you can turn it around and help others that might be going down the wrong road !! Your words are very powerful. God Bless you 🙏🙏🙏

He says “can I get one more of these” in the end. Not “where’s my money”. Good interview. I’ve google him and nothing comes up. Hope he can straighten up a little for the sake of his daughters.

I think he probably means well but still appears to be a little proud of the life he lead. The drug amounts he had on him still kinda boost his ego it seems. I wish him well.

Tony you are amazing! You took justice into your own hands and unfortunately had to and continue to pay for. You are extremely intelligent and I hope your road to recovery is not half the battle you have already endured. You have your whole life ahead of you! Do it for you! So your daughter's can meet Tony. Bless

Wow, this guy has the right mind set. He has a good head on his shoulders. Yes he made some mistakes but he knows right from wrong. This guys is amazing and I hope we get an update on him one day. He is inspiring. I wish the best for him, truly

I wish you the best of luck. You will over come, Tony. God bless. Stay strong.

"To be honest" is never said before the truth.

Great interview I so hope thay he can get clean. I know he could help so many kids he is very well spoken but keeps things real. Good luck I'm sure you have already helped someone thank you for sharing your story.

Amen brother! I hope your life changes for the better. Don't give up as you said. Your story is amazing. Hopefully it keeps people out of prison.

Wow !! What a life he has had !! I pray for you to stay on a better path !! 🙏🙏🙏

One of my favorite interviews. What a sick man to do that to his little sister. I don't think he should've went to prison :(

I can tell he’s genuinely a good soul, just got on the wrong path. I hope the future is bright for him

Tony, there is a lot of wisdom in your story. Your voice could be a lightening rod to guide young people in the right direction. Life is hard for most. Good luck to you and your family!
