Speaks to junior & senior high school and college students about the seriousness of "choices" regarding drug & gang involvement, including prison life "Mad Dog" has spoken in 1574 schools (to date), in 39 states, to approximately 1 million students in the last 16 years. Since his release from prison, after 10 years, 8 months & 11 days, on drug related charges, on Nov 8, '94, he established The Straight Talk Outreach Program (S.T.O.P.). His program has received accolades and support from a multitude of law enforcement & educational organizations nationwide, including Special Recognition from The United States Congress, The California State Legislature, The L.A.P.D., The L.A. Co. Sheriff's Dept., as well as the endorsement of former Arkansas Governor (and Presidential Candidate) Mike Huckabee, & is strongly endorsed by N.A.S.R.O. (The National Association of School Resource Officers). S.T.O.P. has been very effective with students.
