The Coach, Frank Williams, from 'Last Chance High' was fired after they decided to "move"(read:close) the school in that area. The board of education(seeing the state the school was in) stopped sending more kids, and the remaining groups began to age out. Williams says he was initially told in July 2015 that the school wasn't closing, just moving. But he was given the pink slip anyway. Afterwards, his son Frank Williams .Jr fell ill but after a long stay at the hospital he received new life through his heart transplant on Thursday, July 13, 2017. Mr. Williams struggled to pay for his sons hospital stay and couldn't really retire and had to keep working over the age of 65. I couldnt find what he's doing today. His son is alright though. You can find their GoFundMe here; www.gofundme.com/franksheart Montreal "Spanky" Almond, is an avid basketball player today, he's a power forward and he's better when it comes to his speech. Not cured but better than he was in this video. "I wouldn't be one to read," said Spanky , now 15. "He helped me, he'd make me read and that helped it get better…he was a good mentor to us." referring to Mr. Williams.

i wish spanky got some therapy... its so obvious he is overwhelmed with emotion. guilt mostly, for nearly fatally hurting his sisters. no one understands him, not even himself.

Yes, I agree. Whenever Spanky is asked: “What’s the one thing in your life that has positively impacted you”. Or if he’s asked, “Who is the person that has changed your life”, I’m almost positive that Spanky will answer that his coach taking him to his first basketball game has left a positive and meaningful impact on him. I know this series is several years old, so I hope all of the kids are doing well and are happy!

In case anyone would like to know: After the show ended cortez fell into a life of violence, drug dealing and street life, forcing him and his family to flee the city. Coach william had gotten laid off and burned through the majority of his savings, but he says he continues to see some of the kids on the west side. Crystal and her son(Rudy Andrew Sanchez II) sadly died on Friday September 28, 2018. Spanky (montreal almond) got arrested just this year. And lastly, keontay was shot and killed. This is all the information I found for the people that wanted an update.

If Spanky was a psychopath he would not have trauma induced speech loss. It is clearly evident that he was severely impacted by almost losing his sisters. Some of these psychologists/psychiatrists only want to quickly diagnose people.

@JimmieRussel

I'm pretty sure what they're saying is he's faking it, he's psychopathic, set his house on fire, and is now faking a speech impediment for attention and all the bonuses that come with it. I mean sure the fire could be accidental, but he's taking it for a ride. They're not saying he has trauma induced speech loss because he's a psychopath, those are two different things. They most likely did multiple tests and gathered that he is a psycopath and surmised that he is probably faking the impediment too.

@camdevtube

***** It seems unlikely that he intentionally tried to kill his sisters. He would have to be EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT at that age to know that he can probably avoid any punishment and get sympathy through faking a trauma-induced speech impediment. Mostly kids just lie to avoid punishment, they don't freaking think to themselves "I'm going to make myself stutter to fool everyone!" That just sounds ridiculous to me. He probably doesn't even know the definition of the word "trauma", yet comprehend well enough to use something like that to his advantage. Be realistic here, please. If he was that smart, he would've found a way to deal with his murderous father that constantly beats his family.

Officially you're not supposed to Dx it before 18 but some docs Dx at 16. He's too young to have a personality disorder. At most he could have conduct disorder.

He's a kid. He froze with fear when something happened that he didn't understand. I've met people with antisocial personality disorders and children with conduct disorders. He doesn't fit the bill at all. This is conversion disorder following extreme trauma.

He’s more than a coach he’s a friend. He treats him like his own son in a way. It’s heartwarming

The smoke from the fire probably caused his speech impediment, he is a good kid deep down but the actions portray him to be a psycho, which in reality he's just a kid who has minor disabilities and is not good with terrible situations. The fire thing was not a form of psychopathic tendencies, he was probably in a state of shock to where he didn't know how to handle the situation. In the video he says he feels bad about the fire, that shows he has emotions and regret for his actions.

Spanky doesn't belong in this school in my opinion, he should have been placed at a demonstration school instead (these school specialize in students with disabilities with tools on development).

Although he didn't/couldn't express at the time his feelings, he is now suffocating with guilt and pain of almost taking the lives of his sisters. He really needs therapy ASAP to address his trauma.

yo I got mad respect for mr Williams. we need more people like him

I literally almost cried he said it was an accident and his mom was just talking shit ... Like no shit he didn't know what to do he was scared that kids needs sumone like coach to take him in becouse to be honest it really don't think his mom loves him and that makes me so sad :(

This is such a good example of how you should treat at-risk kids, he introduced him to something he'd knew he'd like, and treats him with kindness and understand, and giving advice when needed.

“The black one with the Ponytail “ 🤣😍 His smile when he said warmed my heart I can’t wait to adopt some lovely kids who everyone wants to give up on Look how happy this kid is

Wow, I thought the same exact thing. Coach Williams seems like he would be a great father figure for "Spanky" but you've got to acknowledge the role he plays at his own home watching after his two sisters (and mother). Vice did a great job on this short documentary! I think it was mostly due to Spanky's presence that kept me tuned in.

TheSeductiveArts People shouldn't take care of other people's kids ? So stupid things like hospitalised births, child care, schools, and sports coaches should all be ditched and parents can just deal with it all themselves ? I agree that you can't sve everybody, but it's not just about Spanky and his coach, it's about society - the society that completely failed these American families.

Coach Williams is a down to earth amazing human being.

All I want for Spanky is the world. He has this spark inside him despite from all the trauma he’s been through and continues to. I wish his mother was more nurturing towards him, he is a very special boy.

Lifes not fair; these kids never had a choice in being born. It's so strange how so many will easily condemn these kids (im not saying you), but they had no choice to their circumstances. I bet if they had the chance, they would have said hell no to birth and die prematurely. But here they are, broken and all. Society might despise them, but they deserve to claim their stake at living just like everyone else.

Watching him at the game made my heart melt!! He was so happy and his smile was the best!

2022 Update on Spanky: He’s been arrested for 2 charges including soliciting unlawful business and possession.

Coach Williams is like that inspirational black coach at the horrible school, who helps the kids become better in the movies. Oh wait....

Hurts me to see someone like him have to talk like that

Seeing Spanky smile makes me smile. Same with Coach Williams

He's traumatized. He has mental and emotional issues. His coach recognized that. He can't help it. He can't speak without almost crying.

I wish coach Williams was my friend, so I could tell him how awesome and amazing he is. He deserves nothing less than an enormous statue, in his honor, with the word "Hero" engraved on it.

Hats off to the coach. I couldn't do his job for a year. Guy deserves a medal, honor and recognition for what he does.

I know exactly how Spanky feels. When I went to the first grade, I became a stutterer. I've been made fun of for years and to top it off, no one wanted to be my friend and if I did make any friends it'd be like VERY few. It got to a point where where my mom would yell at me because I'd try to tell her something and she wouldn't understand me. It made me too scared to even talk to someone because I was scared to be made of. Years has passed where my stuttering slowly went away and I had speech therapy and it's helped me a lot. I wasn't as shy as before but I am quite though. Guys, I know it's strange for people to talk like that but PLEASE HAVE PATIENCE AND BE NICE.!😭

This coach deserves all the praise in the world.

That Teacher dude deserves some serious recognition, what a champion !

Seeing Spanky enjoy himself and his time is so beautiful!

kid didn't do anything but stare at the fire because he was in shock and terrified, not because he had no emotion.

I'm rooting for Montrell and his sisters. I just don't understand how his mom can sit there with a new born child, when she has demonstrated that she is unable/unwilling to parent her older children. This is a perfect example why our state/federal welfare system needs to be modified, because as it stands, it enables/encourages parents like Montrell's mom to continue to make poor decisions that harm her children and burden responsible citizens. The best thing that could happen to those children is to get them away from their mother and in the care of responsible and loving guardians.

Regardless of beliefs, politics, media, whatever...these are innocent children and it's heartbreaking. Absolutely heartbreaking.

I agree that mother needs to stop having children. I mean damn you have a son that almost killed your daughters from a fire. Look after the children you already have. I'm assuming it's not easy raising a childen in chicago so why keep making them.

I’m proud of the coach. That’s what happens when a good father figure is involved. The black community needs to do better with this stuff. My life wasn’t the best growing up, but my dad worked 80+ hours a week for 15 straight years in order to support us. He was a hardass early on, and even though that strained our relationship, I still respect him.
