Lucas: The Stories He Tells

Posted Nov 17, 2015
“I could tell you some stories,” says Joel James one Tuesday afternoon at the Smith Center. And for the next hour, he does. He tells you about stretching out his 6-foot-11 frame on a couch instead of a bed, and dodging bullets on the way home from school, and the day he passed a murder scene on the way to the bus stop. But he does not tell all of the stories. He says he can’t. (GoHeels.com)
