Bobo, Before The Fall
Wed, August 26, 2015

And as we close tonight – we look back to June of 2004. That's when Theodore Parchue, then known as Bobo Youth was the popular artist on the local scene with his breakthrough song, Protect and Serve. It was a very effective police protest music song – and one that resonated at many levels of the community. It was the high point for Bobo Youth – who as we told you at the top of the newscast went very much downhill after 2006 when he was convicted of burglary. He died this morning as a homeless man under a city bridge. But in 2004, when, as the old spiritual says, "hope was still unborn", no one could have guessed at such a tragic, and nameless end for a one time street celebrity. Tonight we look back at Keith swift's story of the then ebullient artist.

Theodore PArchue, aka Bobo Youth, dead at 34. Tomorrow we'll know more about his cause of death, but police do not suspect foul play
