From director Lucy Walker:

"But here's some bad news. Since we wrapped filming Faron got tired of trying to get by in Florida. The valet job didn't make enough in the off-season, and by then he was trying to sell $1500 vacuum cleaners door-to-door on commission which - unsurprisingly - didn't pay. Even Faron, smart as he is, is not equipped to succeed outside the Amish community. He left Emma and moved back to Indiana, succumbing to incessant pressure from his parents and the lure of a lucrative job with his dad. And it wasn't long before his parents turned him in for possession of a loaded gun and drugs paraphernalia. I submitted the film as part of his defense case and he got off lightly, two years jail and five years probation. He's happy because it's in a work-release program, so he'll be leaving jail for eight hours to work on an RV production line. Emma cried because he's happy to be in jail, she's afraid that he's given up hope. I was constantly struggling to balance the urge to help ward off the disasters with the job of standing back to document the disasters. I wish I'd helped him avoid this."

"I mean, do that expensive vacuum cleaners even exist? And who would be stupid enough to buy them? You can get one pretty good PC for that money. My vacuum cleaner cost like 50 bucks or so, if that. And it works just fine. "

You're not very intelligent. You should know that.

Good GAWD, Avortac, you're one putrid piece of inhuman filth. You take a casual email (or perhaps blog) response, reposted here by another user, and pathetically try to dissect it like it was courtroom testimony, yet your own arguments are so disgustingly misinformed and laughable that you look like a complete TOOL. It's not even worth beginning to point out all the fallacies in your logic, you sexist, mysogynist, racist piece of garbage.
