Description
In this Dateline classic, Jimmy Keene, a popular, superstar high school athlete, seemed to have it all growing up in the river city of Kankakee, Illinois. But then, he began selling drugs and moved to Chicago, where his business boomed but a danger lurked 150 miles south that would change his life forever. Lester Holt reports. Originally aired on NBC on September 14, 2012.
