OT - Jayru Campbell Arrested...Again

He's a preditor.  There is not going to be a "pretty please" solution.  He will need some hard tough limits placed on him that are not negotiable.  And it still may not work.   

Kid is trying his hardest to throw it all away.

management counseling was part of his sentence. It seems to have worked well.

I don't think there is hope for him. He seems to have something wrong or still feels entitled. He will have a new permanent residence soon.

I'm going to start a business and offer services to guys like Campbell, Rice and Hardy. I will give them all one free shot at me for a nominal fee in exchange for them not abusing their wives, children or girlfriends. This is absolutely out of control. FREE PSA : Don't hit women or children!

When he was in court the first time, the judge sentenced him under the Holmes Youthful Trainee Act.

It only took him two hours to violate the conditions of the program and if he had finished, he had the opportunity to walk away with no charges on his record.

Toledo took Csont'e. Why not Jayru? 

Article isn't clear if the assault happened before he went in or not. DA easily could've been investigating a previous complaint and just now decided to press charges.  Either way he needs serious help.

Come to Toledo

He would be captain material in East Germa........er Lansing. Naw I fun ya....its sad to see a kid throw away his chance to make all his dreams come true. Possibly ruin his life. Also put the school on alert, he could do something really drastic God forbid, he only knows what and I don't want to speculate but this story could end very bad if someone doesn't give this kid some helpful guidance.

Getting arrested 2 hours after getting released from jail is just crazy. This is a troubled young man, and I hope that he gets whatever help he needs. However, in my opinion, he is not doing a very good job of convincing anyone that he wants help or that he has learned anything from his previous punishment.

The kid had the opportunity to get out of Detroit and make something of himself. Instead, he gets in trouble [again] and will probably be playing football at Wayne State (if they even take him.) It sounds like he would have problems no matter where he went, but I definitely don't see his problems going away with him staying in Detroit.

assaulting anyone, anytime. But yeah, thats super f'ed up. Not a young man that thinks about the consequences of his actions before he does them Im assuming.

I was going to make a joke, something about adjusting to the world outside of the harsh realities of prison life, but this kid really needs some serious help and I sincerely hope that he gets it ASAP. Though seeing as he is probably going right to back to prison, my guess is he will never get that help and now I am sad.

but the kid is trouble. Causes are probably multiple, but he is responsible for the outcome at this stage. Hope he gets help, but wow that is a tough hill to climb.

So he fights with his GF after being away for several weeks and unable to tend to her "needs"? I can imagine what that was about. In the words of the great and powerful Chris Rock, "I'm not sayin' he should have hit her, but I understand."

How many of you came from stable two parent homes especially where a father was involved in  your life?

All you need to do is research the break up of the black family where ~70% of the children born typically have no father figure in their life. 

There lies the problem we have seen for a few decades and is only getting worse. All you have to do is look at hip hop culture, for one, to see that a culture that doesn't respect authority, education, women etc is bound to self explode. Jeyru and countless others are examples of it. And there is no easy fix. 

Misguided public policy are turning boys into monsters.

 

Whatever chance he had for getting a second chance with football, as well as his reputation, is long gone. It's a shame because I've heard he really is a great talent on the field. What a waste.

Wouldn't be surprised to hear about him going in and out of jail for the next few years.

Anger management counseling may be inappropriate as it could be more an issue of power and control and entitlement, which requires a specialized intervention program. Something akin to 'batterer intervention' that would address the root causes of power and control, or values and attitudes deeply entrenched in one's personality.

And Cass Tech is part to blame for letting run ruff shot on there campus the last few years! I for one hope someone beats his ass and straightens him out! What a deucher
