Raised by his mother in the US until he was 16, Taylor Jr. travelled to Liberia in 1994 to live with his father. During his father's presidency, he became the commander of the infamously violent Anti-Terrorist Unit (ATU), commonly known in Liberia as the "Demon Forces". After returning to the United States, he was arrested by the government for human rights violations committed by the ATU. He is currently serving a 97-year sentence.
