Estephen Cabezas

Young children with guns, liquor and swollen egos. Had a gun pulled on me by a drunk 16 year old and his buddy. Traumatized that my life was in the hands of some young drunken kid. Best thing for that place is video surveillance and a deputy parked off to the side. Loved going and swimming, fishing, kayaking but now I don't even trust my truck within view seeing as people like dumping their stolen cars off the boat ramp.
