Lil’ O Facts

1. The death of his mother when he was 13 years old sparked his rebellious phase. He spent time with the wrong crowd and began dealing drugs on the street. The easy money, fame, and attention from women drew him in and kept him hooked.
2. Following his 1st arrest for dealing drugs, his dad kicked him out of the house and Lil’ O lost the benefits of a middle-class upbringing in a large family.
3. Being on the street led him to deal drugs again in order to survive. When he was caught again, Lil’ O tried to swallow the evidence – 1.5 ounces of crack cocaine.
