He learned first-hand that fathers have no choice and no voice in the matter, and he was forced to stand idly by while his son was murdered before ever getting a chance to breathe, to speak, to live his life.
By the grace of God, Sean found his way into a treatment center, where a long and intense recovery process began.
He now lives in Lake Charles with his wife, Dr. Michelle Corcoran, and their five young children, three of whom are adopted.
