Busted For Pellet Gun Shooting- Days later, Jesse and a friend are arrested in a pellet gun shooting incident and held at Theo Lacy Jail in Orange. The jail is just yards from Orangewood Children's Home, his first stop in the foster care system nine years earlier. The system once again is telling him when to get up, when to go to bed, what to eat and when to take his meds.
