Today the butterfly is coming back thanks to him. But years ago if youd tell him this was what hed be doing someday, he would have laughed, “Youre craz
27、y.” As a boy, he used to be “a little tough guy on the streets”. At age thirteen, he was caught by police for stealing. At eighteen, he landed in prison for shooting a man. “I knew it had hurt my mom,” Bonner said after he got out of prison. “So I told myself I would not put my mom through that pain
