Description

EIGHT tells the true story of a Long Island police officer, Richard “Tony” Mason. Tony struggled as an adult with the news that he was adopted, as well as with substance abuse and mild, yet inexcusable domestic violence.  These unresolved issues ended in Tony taking his own life. He never knew it would be his eight year old son Steve who would find his body.
