With the world watching in stunned silence, Miguel's voice boomed through the airwaves as he addressed the masses. His eyes burning with intensity, he began to unravel the truth behind his family's descent into darkness.

"In the eyes of the world, we are nothing but criminals and monsters," Miguel declared, his voice raw with emotion. "But the truth is far more complex than anyone could ever imagine. Poverty was the curse that plagued my family, stripping us of our dignity and robbing us of our humanity."

As Miguel spoke, the pain of his past echoed in every word. He recounted the tragic tale of his mother's death, a victim of a disease that could have been cured if not for the shackles of poverty. He spoke of his brother Alejandro, whose sickness drained their family's resources and left them teetering on the brink of ruin.

But it was the story of his father that cut deepest into Miguel's soul. A hardworking man driven to desperation by circumstance, Miguel's father had toiled day and night to provide for his family. Yet, when a cup went missing from the house of one of the VIPs, his father was branded a thief and cast out into the streets, leaving behind a shattered life and six years behind bars.

"It was this injustice that drove my brother to the life he chose," Miguel confessed, his voice trembling with rage. "And now, it falls to me to set things right. The VIP who destroyed my family will pay for his sins, and the world will know the truth of our suffering."

With a steely determination in his eyes, Miguel vowed to see his plan through to the end, no matter the cost. For Alejandro, for their father, and for the countless others who had been crushed beneath the weight of poverty and injustice, Miguel would stop at nothing to achieve his revenge.
