Summary

In 2003, a routine night out in New Orlean’s French Quarter changed Jon’s life forever. After a botched robbery by two armed men, he was kidnapped and taken to the notorious Ninth Ward district, where he was, shot in the neck and left for dead. Somehow, he managed to call 911 from his cellphone and crawled to the street for Law Enforcement to discover him.
