A stern Pittsburgh police detective and boxing instructor Jack Mook became very curious after two students didn't show up for his boxing class. Instead of just cancelling and not worrying, he looks into why they didn't show up.

Jack searched for the boys, who were part of a foster home. When he went to see them he realized how bad these two really had it. It was a very abusive home and somewhere no one would ever want to live. The detective took matters into his own hands and did something compassionate and unexpected.

The man took these children out of the foster home and placed them in a new home ... his own. As the days passed, he realized he enjoys their company so much he wanted them to live with them. So Jack decided to do something incredible and adopted the two boys!
