Oct. 6, 2023 – November 6, 2015 was one of the lowest points in Gunton’s life.

“I shot up. I thought it was bunk. I didn’t feel anything. And then I remember starting to drive off and then I woke up right here on the asphalt with broken glass and police and blue, red lights all around me,” Gunton said after a recent visit to that same spot in Laurel.

It’s hard to imagine that Gunton is the same person in the body cam footage he shared with MTN. 

But the 34-year-old Colorado native was introduced to cocaine when he was just 12. It’s something that changed his life forever.

“Since 2011, I was starting businesses, I was doing door-to-door sales. I was really good at doing things like that. I was able to make six figures while I was using IV drugs,” Gunton said.

Gunton moved to Billings in 2014.

Two years later he was homeless and found himself bouncing around Billings from shelter to shelter, even staying in an abandoned house with 15 other people.
