  Almost felt like crying the fact he said thank you for buying the car for me even after the judges ruling says a lot about this young man My prayer is that God will be his strength and protect him and bless his hands in everything he does the sincerity really just spoked too my Heart and this was a very honorable Episode .

  I LOVE JM. I’m glad he wasn’t overly critical of the defendant. Young people typically avoid communication not because they don’t want to pay but because they don’t know how to communicate and are afraid that the plaintiff would not have understood. We need to teach young people rather than condemning them.

  I live for the history and the knowledge that Judge Mathis provides.  It gives me a greater and more expansive perspective on Detroit.

  Great episode! Opened up my eyes to another world out there. What Judge Mathis teaches I can't find in no books. I'm gonna start calling him, "The Professor!" JM educates, motivates, and adds a pinch of good humor.🤓

  I have a small family and we struggle from time to time. I wish I had someone to even borrow a few dollars from time to time but I figure it out and make it through. Blows my mind how people have someone willing to help them and then screw them over. Really crazy.

  We called them “The Jump Out Boys.” They’d come through in a paddy wagon and confront anyone of any age outside. I remember being on the bball court with a group of kids. We were fifth graders and just playing ball. We were literally shouting hoops and talking about a report we all had to do as a prerequisite for graduation. They jumped out ran up on us hands in the guns. They were yelling at us and made us lay on the ground. I didn’t live there but a friend who lived there asked for my help on the report. I tried showing them the paper of notes I was writing for them. They didn’t care. I’ve hated cops since.
