In 2011, Steven Reid recalled, he was in a dark place.
Reid was running the streets, getting into trouble and planning on harming himself. He said he “didn’t want to be here anymore.” So he started dropping subtle hints in text messages.
Next, without warning, his friend, Erik Miranda, came banging on the door. He then spent the next couple of weeks looking after him.
“He kind of just showed up,” said Reid, now 28, a corrections officer who lives in York. “Literally, dragged me outside.”
Miranda was an intelligent young man, family members and friends said, and wise beyond his years. He initially aspired to become an entrepreneur but later moved toward becoming a leader in the Jehovah’s Witnesses.
