Manny was born in Pasadena, California on March 9, 1957. He had 2 siblings. When he was 10 years old, he eyewitnessed his younger brother, Hilo, losing his life to getting run over by a truck. Hilo was 7 years old.
Hilo lost his life, chasing after a diamond & gold Christian cross pendant necklace that his grandmother gave him a week before she passed away. He was trying to ride around in big circles with the bike, while the dog, Maui, chased after him. He mistakenly thought he saw the necklace flying in the middle of the street, but it didn't. He didn't see the truck coming, & he got run over. The boy lost his life, & his necklace was on the sidewalk the whole time.
Of course, this messed Manny's head up. He started having angry outbursts, refusing to go to school & had bad grades. He would always draw images of his brother. He missed his brother.
By the time Manny got to middle school, he was always getting into altercations with other students. He & his sister Rita were peer pressured into underaged drug & alcohol use, & he was always in juvenile detention, off & on. He was always skipping school.
Manny joined the Jesus Freaks Hippie Movement, & then it seemed like as if he followed Aleister Crowley's "Do As Thou Wilt". He did all kinds of dirty things, like fathering over 100 children out of wedlock, participating in drug trafficking & money laundering. He was a crooked, evil con artist, right along with Rita. He traveled the entire world & committed so many crimes & got away with them.
Eventually, he got locked up in a secret prison by another cult, & the cult falsified his death. After that, he was freed, & he was never the same again. He turned his life over to Jesus Christ. He wanted to do it for his brother. He also wanted to be saved. He said that he knew that his brother Hilo wouldn't approve of him mourning his death by misbehaving. Manny had to better his life & change.
