On June 11, 1996, 22-year-old was a gang leader and a drug dealer in Milwaukee's urban Black community. He had wads of cash and a fast car. He had respect and notoriety. He told me, 'I was the go-to guy in my family, in my circle, with my friends, in my community, know what I'm sayin'? If you need something, call Ed. If you need some meat on the barbecue grill, call Ed.' Then, on that June 11, he made one very bad decision. He shot and killed a rival gang member. For his crime, he spent 20 years in Wisconsin prisons.
