## Description

## Backstory

### Childhood

Kenny was born on January 26th, 2000 in Compton of the sunny state of California. Growing up with a single mother and few father figures, Kenny lived a rough life for the majority of his younger years. Kenny and his mother were impoverished by his father, who left his mother 4 months before Kenny was born. Many memories include sleepless nights on an empty stomach and waking up to bowls of dry cereal. Kenny would frequently skip school to be with his friends and brother, Scout Jakobs, and would regularly get into trouble with school faculty and local authorities.

### Sibling(s)

2 years after his birth, his brother Scout Jakobs was born after his mother slept with one of her coworkers. She and the father agreed that he could not be involved with her family as a result of having a family of his own, including a wife and 2 children.

### Juvenile Detention/Prison

Shortly after turning 12, Kenny was arrested at his school after another student claimed that Kenny brandished a pocket-knife and threatened to stab him with it. He was transported to a juvenile rehabilitation facility where he spent 60 days awaiting trial. Despite his young age, Kenny was tried as an adult and was found guilty of Criminal Threats, Brandishing and Possession of Contraband in a State Institution. He was due to serve 6 years in the same rehabilitation facility, but ended up serving 7 years and 6 months after assaulting another juvenile and injuring a guard. Kenny claims that there was no motive behind these assaults, but surveillance records indicate that Kenny was informed of his mother's passing from Leukemia, and the individuals that were assaulted had commented on this in a distasteful manner. After this occurred, Kenny was sent to serve the remaining 2.5 years in an adult correctional facility.

Kenny was released from prison at the age of 19. His brother Scout and cousin Caesar were there on the day of his release to pick him up and take him to their apartment that they planned on sharing with his aunt.

### Life on the Outside

A year after his release, Kenny struggled to keep up with what was expected of him in society. He had little education and no work experience, so making money would prove to be difficult. On top of this, Kenny was in no environment to grieve the loss of his mother, and still had not come to terms with her death. Afraid that Kenny would only make things worse for himself and spiral downward, Caesar had mentioned to him that he had made some friends in another city over the internet and that he wanted him to meet them.

Kenny found these people to be fun to talk to as they all had similar interests and tastes in music, film, and artistic expression. He would chat with them in his free time and they would play games together, Kenny considered them to be close friends; he most likely would've ended up back in prison if it weren't for Caesar introducing them.

Several months passed and Kenny was feeling better about life. He had people to talk to about his problems and a way to express himself, but Kenny and his new friends came up with the idea to move to the state of Los Santos, San Andreas, where they resided. Kenny brought the idea to Caesar and Scout and they liked it. Caesar especially enjoyed the thought of his cousin making some real friends that would keep him busy and out of trouble, so they all took some time to save up money for the trip and do some research on the place while they waited. A few months later, they had pooled all of their money together and booked a one-way trip to the island.
