  • Seeking a fresh start, 43-year-old Charles Rulo moved his family to St. James, MO. Rulo says he's left his drug and alcohol addictions behind. The family of five squeezes into a single-wide, surviving on Rulo's part-time night shift job at Burger King. Space is running out. For just $50 more a month, they could move into a real duplex but they don't have it.
    Charles Rulo smokes in his living room while watching television during the late morning hours after sending his children off to school.
