I would have to say yes, just because the time I spent with him, he's such a nice person. I think he just fell into trouble a lot of times where he was more of a follower than a leader, and wouldn't say no to things he probably should have. It's unfortunate. So I guess in that sense you leave yourself open for something like this to happen. It can so easily be avoided.
