The Hudson river?
Colorado
Ah. Around where I am, sending someone up the river is usually a euphemism for sending someone to Dannemora, which is a prison near where I reside.
Sounds like a good placefor baddies
Yup, it's as maximum security as one could get. If I'm not mistaken, both the guy who killed John Lennon and the second-in-command of Charles Manson had been there at various points.
Good
One died in a car accident, the other main one had a lot of babies who now have their own babies. I moved continents and changed my name through marriage before I opened any social media accounts, so I have no idea what happened to the bulk of them.
One was in a car accident, ended up a quadriplegic.
Another one, last I saw, he was pumping my gas.
One of them is in jail for a looong time. Gang activity including relation to murders. Not sure if he pulled the trigger, but he was the "leader", lol
People who were bullies in high school earn more on average. I'd say they are probably doing better.
My grandma came in with a hot take on this.
"If she was a bitch at 17, she is a bitch at 70."
I'm friends with them! 😃 People can change, and they're nothing like their former selves. They understood that acting rude to me and others when we were little was a wrong thing to do and now they're just regular nice people who are super chill!

My Jr Highschool bully ended up accidentally shooting and killing his friend a few years later in high school. He dropped out and found Jesus, seemed to be dealing with it on his own by the time I graduated. Haven't heard a thing about him in the decade or so since.
At least he's trying, I will always give credit for that.
I know at least one of them was arrested for B&E and possession with intent to sell of meth (though it was immediately after high school and I'm sure he's out by now). The rest, don't know don't care.
What's B&E?
Breaking and Entering. He (and two others) were burglarizing homes.
A town near where I grew up had an epidemic of that. The teachers treated the bullies like their favorite children, the next thing you knew they had burglarized every single unlocked vehicle in the entire town for drug money on multiple occasions and were arrested right before they would've graduated from high school. My friend was one of their brothers and I remember it got so bad they graduated him despite him not passing just to remedy the memory of trying to overshadow him.
Two of them became somewhat decent persons.
The worse one was murdered.
The others I don't know.

The biggest asshole at my primary school got shot by a woman he was living with when he was like 19.
That was quick.
