When Ryan Rice was growing up in Illinois, his parents let him do anything he wanted. Spoiled might be the word that comes to mind. The “freedom” he was granted as a young child ultimately sculpted him into a man with no direction, quitting most of the things he set his mind to…until, that is, he was sentenced to 35 years in a Dixon, Illinois prison.
