HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY – May 16th – Danny Trejo Says He Would Be in Prison or Dead if He Didn’t Get Sober

MIRACLE AND MIRACLE WORKER –

May 16, 2021 – Trejo’s children, Gilbert and Danielle Trejo, both got help at CRI-Help when they were struggling with addiction. Gilbert Trejo has nearly seven years clean while his sister has almost eight years. “My kids are my greatest accomplishment,” Danny Trejo said. “I just adore them. But I wouldn’t have them if I didn’t get sober. If I didn’t get clean and sober, there’s no doubt that I’d still be in prison or dead. It’s that simple because that’s the train I was on. The only thing that stopped it was the program.”

Also honored during the event were CRI-Help’s Jack Bernstein and Marlene Nadel. The evening included dinner from Trejo’s Tacos as well as a screening of the Brett Harvey-directed documentary “Inmate #1: The Rise of Danny Trejo.”
