"Okay so this is a cool documentary because they are literally following them around but I know you don't want to disrupt the filming process but unexcusable that filmmaker allowed that pregnant woman to be beaten up on camera and didn't say or do anything like extremely messed up "

"I recommend watching "Life of Crime 1984-2020" first as it will give you a full picture of the life and story of these individuals. Then watch this one and its sequel to fill in and expand upon some of the extra/missing details. A gritty look inside the real, raw lives of drug addicted criminals."
