Streets of the Lost

LIFE

The boy on the left is known as 'White Junior' on the street. He is 15. His pal on the right is Justin, also 15. They command as much as $300 per 'date' they say. After a particularly lucrative Friday night recently, both boys spent $300 each on their own ghetto blaster radio/cassette player.
