The Whitaker's lied to Mark again, so now he's done with them. They have no one to blame but themselves. Mark was so good to them, and they blew it.

Buy a ticket for him don't give him the money

[saralynn]

That dog is incredibly photogenic, loyal, and obedient. So handsome.

[karenfitzpatrick]

Lorene, Timmy and Ray will miss you the most. Not the money, but the adventures and friendship. We will miss them too...

[troubledjester]

Feel bad for Ray, Timmy and Lorraine. They deserve better.

[justmee]

Everyone needs unconditional love. I’m glad Jason has his dog.🐕 ❤‍🩹

[Jan-tn]

That dog loves him. The way he sits with "his human" during the entire interview. The friendship is probably all this man has. I wish them buddies both the best. 🌷

[susy]

Don't give him money, Mark. He hasn't seen his children in twenty years. He's not going to go see them with money that you give him. The drugs that he uses are where he is now. Help him get into rehab. But don't give him money. Your heart is in the right place. But his problems are bigger than your heart right now.

I have an open bed in a sober house up here in northern Wisconsin. If he truly wants it, it's his.

[bthayer]

Just makes me feel bad for Loraine, Timmy and Ray. They always seem so happy to see Mark.

[dayna]

Mark, you were supposed to be done with them on the last 2 videos. Enough is enough. No more. They treat you like hell and you don't deserve this.

[gt_mustang_mark]

I'm saddened to hear that even Kenneth lied. I thought he was better than that. Thank you for being honest, Jason.

[pseudokowski]

This guy has the highest level of cognitive ability in the entire family.

[Aprilann]

I remember your first interview with Jason, you mentioned it to Larry and Larry said Jason is a lier and blah blah blah, and now look at Larry.

[sgomulka]

I hope Jason is doing okay. There is such a sadness in his eyes and face. I hope he doesn’t give up. He can be successful. I hope he has God in his life. I will be praying for him.

[bartclam]

Aaww the little dog is so good, just sat there so patiently.

[ldp]

It’s not complicated Mark…you’re not family. These people are tight, ride or die tight, you’ll never change that, these are clans that go back 200 years.

[daphneykm]

Mark is one person who can never give upnon anyone. I love him

[aniara_ship]

I love that the dog kept putting her paw on him.

I’m from WV and I know lots of people who don’t do drugs and are working. People who want to be clean, healthy and work can. Those who don’t, well they don’t. Interview the successful people. There’s plenty here.
