Jason Beck describes himself as a Christian conservative, but long before entering the Peoria mayoral race, he characterized himself as a calloused kid who liked to fight. 

He grew up in Missouri with a mom he said was abusive, an absent father and in and out of foster care — a combination that “hardened” him, he said on the Arizona Originals podcast.

Beck tried college, but said it wasn’t for him. He told The Arizona Republic he wasn’t a good student and he wanted to earn money, not accrue debt.

“I knew that that was my way out of poverty,” he said.
