I'm friends with them! π People can change, and they're nothing like their former selves. They understood that acting rude to me and others when we were little was a wrong thing to do and now they're just regular nice people who are super chill!

I'd trade places with you any day.
My grandma came in with a hot take on this.
"If she was a bitch at 17, she is a bitch at 70."
One of them is in jail for a looong time. Gang activity including relation to murders. Not sure if he pulled the trigger, but he was the "leader", lol
People who were bullies in high school earn more on average. I'd say they are probably doing better.
My Jr Highschool bully ended up accidentally shooting and killing his friend a few years later in high school. He dropped out and found Jesus, seemed to be dealing with it on his own by the time I graduated. Haven't heard a thing about him in the decade or so since.
At least he's trying, I will always give credit for that.
The biggest asshole at my primary school got shot by a woman he was living with when he was like 19.
That was quick.
I know at least one of them was arrested for B&E and possession with intent to sell of meth (though it was immediately after high school and I'm sure he's out by now). The rest, don't know don't care.
What's B&E?
Breaking and Entering. He (and two others) were burglarizing homes.
A town near where I grew up had an epidemic of that. The teachers treated the bullies like their favorite children, the next thing you knew they had burglarized every single unlocked vehicle in the entire town for drug money on multiple occasions and were arrested right before they would've graduated from high school. My friend was one of their brothers and I remember it got so bad they graduated him despite him not passing just to remedy the memory of trying to overshadow him.
Two of them became somewhat decent persons.
The worse one was murdered.
The others I don't know.
What happened to the murderer?
He surrendered himself and waits for his trial.
More often than not people become bullies because they have a hard life in the first place. So, sure, feel superior and have this "gatcha" moment or grow up and feel bad for these people, it's your choice
Found the bully!
I was bullied as a kid and grew as a person
