As difficult as it was for me to imagine that my friend could have resorted to crime ...this was even more difficult to believe! His dad had fought to defend our country, and he, himself, had volunteered for the military programs offered on the college campus. Yet, I had remembered one of the cases I had dealt with, through my years of working within the mental health program ...he had a dad who was retired from the Secret Service. Therefore, the way we were brought up; and the way we, ourselves, were at one time, does not always fit the stereotype that we imagine. And it does not immunize us from such thoughts that eventually, through repeated bombardment, elicit a change, perhaps a drastic change. Nonetheless, I still had a difficult time believing this.
