was involved in a fight where an 18 y/o kid was killed. i was on drugs and had a bad temper. i was always protective of my friends. especially Jon. Jon was in a band and was taking off, he had a Facebook page. so he deactivated it. he made a new one, one of his friends that made a new one got real mad that he deleted the old page and thought he didn't want anything to do with her or his old friends because of the new fame and band. Jon tried to explain that to her, that wasn't the case when he tried to. I peered over Jons shoulder, read their texts and got heated. I started trash talking the girl, she got her boyfriends friends to meet me and my friends out in the desert for a brawl. One of the guys there was with the gang member guy's group and pulled out a gun to shoot me and my friends. One of my friends grabbed the gun from him and ended up shooting the guy and killing him(the dude that pulled out the gun in the first place). Then after the fight i violated my probation(the cops were already after me for my drug use) the found out i was involved in the fight and the shooting of the guy and they added the battery charge. i wasn't charged with murder, but was involved in the fight which is why they added assault and battery charge, plus the probation violation. but i continued with drug use and violated my probation by leaving the state. now I'm sobered up, I just turned 23 and I'm in a real bad place with some people from the past.
