Amazing (Spoiler Alert)


That the trio of Freddie, Rob and Delirius made it as long as they did, especially Rob, I thought he was a goner after 90s documentary and incredibly Delirius made it to 2020, Unfortunately, in the end drugs eventually proved to be their ultimate undoing.

I think this is follow up of One Year in a Life of Crime 1989.

Life Of Crime 1984-2020, an HBO original documentary, chronicles the lives of Freddie, Rob, and Deliris, and the struggles they face on the streets of Newark, New Jersey catalyzed by the ever growing drug epidemic.

This was great. The 1989 documentary is about these same three guys? It's not on hbo max.

Great documentary. I was really hoping that Rob, Freddie and Delirius would have made it. They didn't seem like bad guys, they just couldn't kick the habit.

I caught this last night on Sky Documentaries. I absolutely had to watch it as soon as I noticed it because I had actually watched the previous documentaries on YouTube back in the mid-late 2000s and I never forgot about the trio.

to see last night that the newest addition spans to 2020 amazed me, because I never thought any of them would have lived that long, especially Rob who was face down in a pile of trash last time I saw him.

I always rooted for these 3 because like another poster said, none of them seemed like bad people, just afflicted with drug addiction.

even though all 3 lived far longer that I'd expected, I was still terribly upset to see that eventually all 3 wound up dead. especially Rob, as his demise was especially gruesome.

the most heartbreaking part is that there's nothing extraordinary about their life stories, millions of people have walked that same road and met the same fate.

it's so sad, but at the same time it's one of the best documentaries I've ever seen. Rob, Freddie and Deliris will have a place in my heart forever.

RIP
