*A True Story* The Shawtown Trailer Park is a melancholic place where people missed their big opportunity to make a living, drug addicts, and drug dealers live, but also where I moved in the summer of 2015 and the home of a very tightly knit group of teenagers, who became my friends. They were infamous for always carrying drama and getting into trouble with the law. Everything from drug dealing, complex family issues, robbery heists, stealing cars, runaways, addiction, stealing, backstabbing, stays in the juvenile detention center and psych ward, and so much more. "Shawtown ruins people. It ruins everyone."
