Trey recognized himself in the boy due to his similarly difficult upbringing and decided to become his guardian.
Trey was helping Reggie turn his life around when his former gang leader Luis came back into the picture.
Trey’s cautionary tale backfired when Reggie was once again arrested and asked to flip on Luis.
Reggie knew that if he ratted out the gang leader, Luis would kill Janelle.
Instead, he traded information on Trey’s arson for his freedom.
