@@Ompadidthabeat Keontay Hightie, 21, was on a porch in the 3800 block of West Maypole around 11:40 a.m. on June 8 when he was fatally shot during an argument, he died in 2022. Absolutely tragic, what a loss of life.
One of the staff in a previous episode said they were doomed and were already a statistic that is pretty much how it pans out. It's like superdeterminism, they don't even have free will at this point, their destiny is already set and the outcome is known, it just has to play out. That's why the bigger problem isn't in rehabilitating but in abolishing the horrible conditions in these underdeveloped parts of America and really changing the system, because it is all a systemic issue. Vice's Last Chance is literally a first-hand insight on how these kind of criminals are made, from childhood to adulthood, you sympathize with them and see their human side, but they are still destined to fall back into the streets. These boys are pre-programmed to act out in the way they do, it's why no amount of advice can really get them to think, unless they already have some small level of stability in their life or inside them to heed the warning, if they don't, it's like you are talking to a brick wall. Those who come out of the gang life against all odds, already have some little semblance of sense inside of them, and deep down truly didn't even wanna be a part of it, so it isn't really a case of this person changed or was saved, but more of this person finally got the chance to show who he really was, those who don't have this little glimmer of hope are doomed to a life like this. Next time I ever hear about gang related cases, I will think back to this doc and remember this is probably the environment they came from, they weren't born blood thirsty, but in broken households.
Anyone in 2023, just me OK. This makes me realise that my parents are so important in my life and that I'm thankful I'm being brought up in a stable household.
+nikhil I know that they are a group. But, I think they moved towards community work in some areas of business to improve the black communities. My source is their website.
what? Vice Lords is a gang that's been around for a long ass time (since 1958). The word "vice" means immoral, or criminal activities. That's why the gang named themselves that, and that's why Vice news is named that...because it mostly covers stuff considered to be criminal or immoral.
I've pretty much binged all of this in one sitting. Coach Williams is an amazing human being, as are all the teachers and admin doing their best to just help these kids anyway they can. Complete unsung heroes that plug along each day without the thanks they need and deserve.
Heres a follow up, the school shut down and now he’s jobless. Rn he’s run out of money and he hears about his former students being shot. Source: “Chicago”
In case anyone would like to know: After the show ended cortez fell into a life of violence, drug dealing and street life, forcing him and his family to flee the city. Coach william had gotten laid off and burned through the majority of his savings, but he says he continues to see some of the kids on the west side. Crystal and her son(Rudy Andrew Sanchez II) sadly died on Friday September 28, 2018. Spanky (montreal almond) got arrested just this year. And lastly, keontay was shot and killed. This is all the information I found for the people that wanted an update.
I've seen this series more than a few times and it really highlights the inner cities across America, how underdeveloped they all are, just destined for this type of life
This series is really amazing vice. I'll be honest and say it has made me shed a few tears and feel grateful for being born into a world where i'm not exposed to gangland crime and poverty. My heart breaks for all of these kids who are born into a cycle that never seems to break. I hope for these kids they break the cycle and change the example that has been set for them.
SweetDulces That's such a bullshit excuse, their own culture is the problem. Until they take responsibility for it and stop blaming 'the white man' for everything, it will never change.
SweetDulces There is no need to be rude and yeah, I am grateful. I know plenty of white people who have been born into a world of gangland crime. Judging from your previous comments you have racial profiling problems yourself. I understand police, judges, politicians and general people in power are racist but I personally see everyone as equal. If you have watched the previous episodes then you would know that many of these children's father were involved in gangs, they have shot people, robbed, and one father even laughed to his son about his crime. Their mothers don't care and the children are left to defend for themselves. This happens all over the world. Don't try bring racism into this issue, this is a global issue.
NakedWithoutMyLippy i some what agree with what you say but that father didnt laugh out of him taking himself and his son situation as a joke..that was him being uncomfortable and not being able to show the right emotion at the right time.
SweetDulces stfu you fucking idiot. its about the demographic and how people are raised. these blacks are raised in poverty and the cycle is hard to stop/control. Your fucking racist for saying that. Dumb shit
Warning ⚠️ this may contain people having seizures, and some individuals may find it disturbing. I’m out of Chicago now. It’s actually a hard place to live in, all the videos: FAKE. It’s different. It’s not you getting shot every second or you homies getting shot up. It’s mainly about who you have beef with and what type of territory your on

3:40 I spent a couple weeks interviewing guys in the local inner city for a college research project, you wouldn't believe how common this story is. Young kids, 8-12 years old, hanging out doing normal kid stuff, and some gang member offers them easy money to help them sell. Most of the kids are too young to know any better, and the ones who do, they just wait until their mom gets sick just like Keontay's, because then even a good kid who knows better is hard-pressed not to do it when their mom is sick, their landlord is knocking on their door, and there aren't any legitimate jobs they can do to help cover costs because there aren't any real businesses in their neighborhood. Get them when they're that young, and those gang members can basically guide them growing up to be exactly what they want them to be. It's a sick, vicious cycle, and I've always had huge respect for the guys I spoke to who got out of that life and were adamant in keeping their kids from falling down it.
The kid talking about his mother and making money to help her out really shows what the issue of gangs stems from. Poverty stricken homes and neighborhoods. This is an economic problem at its root. That’s why we get nowhere with it we treat it as if the people are the ones in the wrong, when it’s the system that has wronged them.
Poverty isn't quite the original issue. White gangs, from working class people, were active in Chicago before any of the Black gangs you can name still around today. We had to form some of our groups not to get our heads busted by them when we got caught in too few numbers.
What are these racist hatemonger trolls doing here in comments section? This content is too complex for you to handle. Go back to your PewDiePie & Minecraft & CoD videos. Or better yet, go outside once in a while.
What's racist? Kids fucking around in a publicly funded school intended to educate? Tough shit, instead off dancing in a classroom sit the fuck down--shut up--and listen, learn something instead of trying to be the next fiddy or diddy.
I didn't but I know more than a few that grew up in the shit hood, they chose not to fuck up and are successful while some of their siblings are in the system (criminal). You can choose to fuck up or choose to not fuck up.
commonsense369 The racist comments calling the students monkeys, apes and the n words is wrong so that's why people are up voting this comment because its unnecessary. These kids have issues and are being helped. We have no idea what they're like when the cameras go off and I question any grown adult that comes on to a video to make hateful racist comments about a child.
felt sorry for lil man at 6:17. when u aint got a dad and cant really have a mom due to physical or mental illness. You sposed to pick the torch up where they left it and raise your siblings like they were your own. Not only do you make yourself the man yo dad could never be but you learn to treasure those around you and you will look after yourself JUST so they have you. I pray for you all in this situation
@@almightyyeezydab5149 You said RIP, then they tried to help. What's the point of that comment? The video is about them trying to help him. Who does your comment help? No one. You just wanted to point out that he's dead by his own fault.
Keontay is very handsome as is Cortez..so many of my young Black brothers are handsome, charismatic, intelligent, and deeply wounded. It would be beautiful if more had a real chance to live their lives happily. peacefully, and positively in order to gain success. Success in life, mental success, and emotional growth can and will lead to economic empowerment.
You get these kids in front of a positive male role model and they stand a chance. We need more men like this in these communities before it’s too late.
Keontay “Chief Spark” Hightie was killed June 8, 2022 on the west side of Chicago. We need more positive men involved these young ppl’s lives. His father wasn’t in his life and now he’s not going to be here to be involved in his children lives. The streets are cold hearted and relentless. #RIPTayTay 💔
@@reniarellano8507 Yeah, it’s crazy. I’m a PO here in and his death was a little heartbreaking. A nice guy, but just dealt a bad hand and continued down the wrong paths. 💔

@@xboxmoonpartingty104 how you gonna say that? you prolly support Trump, dont wanna help the broke and poor except keep em down. people like you make this world an even worse place to be
There is a huge problem in these communities throughout the country. And we need to start doing a hell of alot more to solve them instead of blaming other things.
It’s jus the streets is super complicated U either caught up in it, or trying to live thru it, relatives in it sumtimes parents while for some they’re also trying to chase their dreams and work... While the streets get no support too by outside help Like at sum point they prob think there isn’t a way out Man it’s just so integral that these kids see the future and don’t get caught up in that life and instead go on to leave and live a better one. That they actually believe in their own potential.
It's very sad to hear that in 2022, Keontay Hightie, 21, was on a porch in the 3800 block of West Maypole around 11:40 a.m. on June 8 when he was fatally shot during an argument.
badmnz123 Jones Bolt Da Shit was trying to be funny with his snarky, weak ass line about tribalism. But w/ a name like Silva I'm pretty sure his ancestors had some tribal moves too. He just can't dance because he has shit for brains and is incapable of functioning properly.
The kid at 00:08, that's on the computer, is no longer with us. Lost his life on the streets. Along with his passing, we've lost Keontay, Melvin James, Jr, and Cortez is in prison till 2033. The rest of the cast has mostly done a little bit of time and gotten out. Reverend Hood also lost his grandson to gun violence in 2023. Is this show cursed? I don't think it is. It's a stark reminder of the sort of life that is all too common in certain parts of Chicago.
I love this mini series, they should really show this in schools for young teenagers that are on the wrong path. Sometimes I look at those kids , and say what bad kids they are but then I look at their situations in life also. And it doesn't help that majority of black media aka hip hop exploits this type of behavior as cool or acceptable. I also believe those kids have so much potential in life, I feel they just need to be in a better atmosphere and surroundings than they are in.
You have no idea how wild that school was. Those kids were kicked out of other schools. It wasn't going to be too much lecturing on serious academic topics.
Huda Ali I didn't say to censor it. I said to make it not cool in the eyes of people. You are correct their are many factors involved but music definitely plays a big role. Its all involved wih the imagination and influences their thought patterns and then behavior. Not saying that most other types of music is ookay especially today's "pop" music, but c(rap) "music" is probably the lowest of the low.

I didn't but I know more than a few that grew up in the shit hood, they chose not to fuck up and are successful while some of their siblings are in the system (criminal). You can choose to fuck up or choose to not fuck up.

commonsense369 The racist comments calling the students monkeys, apes and the n words is wrong so that's why people are up voting this comment because its unnecessary. These kids have issues and are being helped. We have no idea what they're like when the cameras go off and I question any grown adult that comes on to a video to make hateful racist comments about a child.
felt sorry for lil man at 6:17. when u aint got a dad and cant really have a mom due to physical or mental illness. You sposed to pick the torch up where they left it and raise your siblings like they were your own. Not only do you make yourself the man yo dad could never be but you learn to treasure those around you and you will look after yourself JUST so they have you.
I pray for you all in this situation
Rest In Peace Keontay, they tried to help him 🙏
The second part of your comment just isn't necessary.
@@369pendulum yea it is, he wanted to be Vice lord
@@gyroxaver6897 Then say he deserved to die if that's how you feel, don't attach RIP to pretend like you have a heart.
@@369pendulum So acknowledging the school administration’s best efforts to help kids like Keontay isn’t necessary??
@@almightyyeezydab5149 You said RIP, then they tried to help. What's the point of that comment? The video is about them trying to help him. Who does your comment help? No one. You just wanted to point out that he's dead by his own fault.

LMFAO that beginning TURNUP
He looks like he was doing Elvis.

Damn Keontay actually dead now
Rest up Keontay always hoped you’d make it out🕊🙏🏾
He passed? No way

@@thebeastfugingtown1211 from his ass
@@thebeastfugingtown1211 search up his name it’s everywhere
Keontay is very handsome as is Cortez..so many of my young Black brothers are handsome, charismatic, intelligent, and deeply wounded. It would be beautiful if more had a real chance to live their lives happily. peacefully, and positively in order to gain success. Success in life, mental success, and emotional growth can and will lead to economic empowerment.
Keyonte is fine now, he just posted something on facebook like 26 minutes ago
**Keyontay
+Angel Turner You're exaggerating.
I am?
+Angel Turner Yeh you are.
Its also an insult to humanity to call them intelligent.

He’s a natural alpha with no brains though
You get these kids in front of a positive male role model and they stand a chance. We need more men like this in these communities before it’s too late.
Lil boy wit camera: You like going to this school?
Cortez: Not that much
Is this meant to be a joke
It was Keontay not Cortez
Page Kennedy was a vice lord?

@Henry Bunch reverend robin hood is literally living proof against your claim.
Seek truth There's historical proof on Jesus Christ
The dance he was doing beginning was called the tweaker shuffle😂😂
Keontay is dead and Cortez is in prison doing 25 years.
Keontay “Chief Spark” Hightie was killed June 8, 2022 on the west side of Chicago. We need more positive men involved these young ppl’s lives. His father wasn’t in his life and now he’s not going to be here to be involved in his children lives. The streets are cold hearted and relentless. #RIPTayTay 💔
Damm that was only a few months ago....this video 8 years smh
@@reniarellano8507 Yeah, it’s crazy. I’m a PO here in and his death was a little heartbreaking. A nice guy, but just dealt a bad hand and continued down the wrong paths. 💔

These little boys are so pretty and cute and they're faces look like they have seen some major evil in their lives. So sad that all these young guys all ended up mean without 1 goal... They should be boxing all the way of out chi city ... Amen

+Brandon Marks your ppl are the ones who made black ppl the way they are in America. Yall put them in ghettos and shit. Everything a black person does is reflecting on white ppl.
Tactical Nielsen lol laughable Blacks will never get any where with a victim mentality im not the reason why the masses of blacks reside in the ghetto
+Brandon Marks I just laugh at stuff like this that's why racist white people in jail get fucked up and raped.
Brandon Marks you sound like one of those bitter white men because you're wife got took by Tyrone you hate all black ppl lol it's okay Becky will come back😎😘😅
I teach at risk elementary kids. Pray for these kids ;they a product of where they come from. They need people to care about them and teach them the right way
at 1 my friends school there was a gang shotin
I wish men knew how much we need them. Black men especially…..we really need you these babies need you. Your decisions affect generations to come.
i hate how short the episodes are, i really feel like i'm getting to know these kids.
We need a update on these kids
Prison.
Cortez just got outta prision, dancing dude at the beginning got shot and crystal got a fb look like she living life
@@mr.pierre5644 I hope they're in prison. Let the gutter trash live with the rest of the filth, no need for them to be in normal society.

Natalie Z flee the guys
SHADOW CLONE
Natalie Z I think it was a song by dlow bopping was goin crazy back then
There is obviously no chance for these kids to make it anywhere in society.
yes their is
Still praying for these kids. This makes me so sad

@@bryanacosta5339 and some dead like keontay
One of them recently got killed
2:47 when my mom makes me order by myself at Macdonalds
What does that have to with the haircut?
There is a huge problem in these communities throughout the country. And we need to start doing a hell of alot more to solve them instead of blaming other things.
It’s jus the streets is super complicated
U either caught up in it, or trying to live thru it, relatives in it sumtimes parents while for some they’re also trying to chase their dreams and work...
While the streets get no support too by outside help
Like at sum point they prob think there isn’t a way out
Man it’s just so integral that these kids see the future and don’t get caught up in that life and instead go on to leave and live a better one. That they actually believe in their own potential.

It's very sad to hear that in 2022, Keontay Hightie, 21, was on a porch in the 3800 block of West Maypole around 11:40 a.m. on June 8 when he was fatally shot during an argument.
My mother taught Keontay Hightie at a school in Peoria Illinois in 2016, he was a good kid and led others.
And now he’s dead
@@brackbivins148 you dead serious?
@@brackbivins148 just googled it. Wow. That sucks. Thanks for letting me know
Keontay Was shot in the arm in 2015.. But he survived.. Chicago life is crazy man 😒
I got shot in the leg on the 17 septembee
Sin Lifee last year i was shot twice in the hip n ankle but that the life opps not on shit aint popped me i was coolin in the 100s wen i got shot
Jr only crazy if you life the gang life.....other than it's a normal life.
I got shot in the groin (2 inches away from my d@#$), it hurts
His fb is spark allot
As a social work student I cant wait to get back to my city and help kids just like this. Great series!!
I sure hope you were able too 🙂🙂🙂
That's amazing. Thanks for helping the misunderstood.
The dance... truly african moves right there. Tribal shit!
and?
badmnz123 and nothing... stating a fact.
Its called Boppin. Its a dance that's popular now in the Chi.
chicagomycity
Yeah and in Africa its called tribal dancing lol. Nothing wrong with that, They do originate from Africa
badmnz123 Jones Bolt Da Shit was trying to be funny with his snarky, weak ass line about tribalism. But w/ a name like Silva I'm pretty sure his ancestors had some tribal moves too. He just can't dance because he has shit for brains and is incapable of functioning properly.
the ''jail or dead'' hit hard now cortez is in jail and keontay is dead...
That's so sad
Favorite series! Hooked since episode one. There is always great documentaries on here but this one is the best by far!

The kid at 00:08, that's on the computer, is no longer with us. Lost his life on the streets. Along with his passing, we've lost Keontay, Melvin James, Jr, and Cortez is in prison till 2033. The rest of the cast has mostly done a little bit of time and gotten out. Reverend Hood also lost his grandson to gun violence in 2023. Is this show cursed? I don't think it is. It's a stark reminder of the sort of life that is all too common in certain parts of Chicago.
damn - Sad
The kid dancing must be from out west 😂😂💀💀
Omm he is🤣
duh that’s where this was filmed at
@@icedoutnunu lls
I love this mini series, they should really show this in schools for young teenagers that are on the wrong path. Sometimes I look at those kids , and say what bad kids they are but then I look at their situations in life also. And it doesn't help that majority of black media aka hip hop exploits this type of behavior as cool or acceptable. I also believe those kids have so much potential in life, I feel they just need to be in a better atmosphere and surroundings than they are in.
0:04 “I walk around wit that pack on me dat sack on meh”
song?
All kids need adults to guide them. Don’t just say something, sit back, and see how they do. Guide them, tell them what to do!
We need more OG’s getting these boys off the streets vs leading them to the street!
“When I was 13 I had the same haircut”
Me : wait you had hair ?
xx muerto “had” is the word so
Those teachers and especially this reverend are the real heroes. They dont give up, to fight for those kids, with such patience. unbelievable.
The teacher doesn’t care if they play music and dance like a crazy person. Lol 😂
You have no idea how wild that school was. Those kids were kicked out of other schools. It wasn't going to be too much lecturing on serious academic topics.
The kids need more of us doing this type of positive mentoring. .right on brother. .keep pushing.
+Croatswagg cks
I always find my way coming back to this video💯
If you want this to stop you need to make c(rap) "music" not cool.
... and make Hebrew Yiddish music cool? LmFaO!
alx lek LOL yea. Although I don't know Yiddish and am not Askenasi though.
alx lek NOT!!! LoL
Huda Ali I didn't say to censor it. I said to make it not cool in the eyes of people. You are correct their are many factors involved but music definitely plays a big role. Its all involved wih the imagination and influences their thought patterns and then behavior. Not saying that most other types of music is ookay especially today's "pop" music, but c(rap) "music" is probably the lowest of the low.
***** I grew up with rap. I know what I am talking about.
