it was at the cuyahoga county corrections center in cleveland that we met 18-year-old paris hammond. he said he once had dreams of becoming a pastry chef, but instead he followed his older brother ramal, a known shot caller in the jail's largest gang, the heartless felons. we were with paris on the day he was sentenced on two counts of felonious assault for shooting a 15-year-old boy and leaving him paralyzed. his plea deal called for a sentence between five and 18 years in prison. outside the courtroom, the hammond brothers' mother, tanya, had just arrived with several of ramal and paris' younger siblings. >> i'm here with my children and my nephew and a family friend. i'm hoping that the judge will give my son leniency.
