Greg Harris Sr.

 

Gigi and Greg Sr. visit L.G. every weekend at the detention center. They're worried about how much he'll change during his incarceration. "Hopefully he'll 'be L.G.' when he returns home," Gigi says. "He's mentoring other kids now [in the youth detention facility]. That's his personality, to help other kids stay out of trouble."

"Our hearts—my heart and my wife's—go out," Greg Sr. says. "When I visit my son, I always think about [Jeremy]. I think about [Jeremy's dad, Brian,] because I know, as a father, it hurts me just because my son is not home. I have to see him once a week. I can't put myself in his shoes, but I can imagine how he feels."
