Interview with Vincent Haywood…

It was 2002, and Vincent Haywood was finally coming home after spending the past 11 1/2 years in prison. When Vincent stepped off the bus in Houston, Texas, ironically he was face-to-face with the site of his last robbery – a McDonalds.

Appearances…

We don’t know what others are going through. Mental health and wellness have been shattered in the past year because of isolation, lack of socialization, and sometimes the loss of loved ones.
