ANOTHER BONUS EPISODE. Continuing with my informal research, I recently managed to catch up with Criminology lecturer Michael Cawley from Edge Hill University, UK. This is a fascinating interview and insight into Criminology. Topics include prison, the justice system, inequality in society, neoliberalism and career paths for Criminology students. During the three and a half years I was in prison I wrote over a million words by hand. Tales From The Jails is a contemporaneous account of my life...
"They say things come in threes. Well, I was 23 years of age, a flawed man with a ferocious appetite for removing valuable objects from their owners. I had a gambling habit to shame an addict, and a taste for the wrong type of female company." During the three and a half years I was in prison I wrote over a million words by hand. Tales From The Jails is a contemporaneous account of my life, and attempts to thrive rather than merely survive, whilst incarcerated. Most names have been changed. ...
Continuing with my research and interviews, I managed to catch up with what I like to call one of the 10 Percenters, a former prolific burglar and jewel thief referred to in the old days as The Cat. Daryl had a life changing moment in prison, and as a result never returned to crime. Nowadays his life couldn’t be any more different. During the three and a half years I was in prison I wrote over a million words by hand. Tales From The Jails is a contemporaneous account of my life, and a...
BONUS EDITION AS PROMISED! At the end Series 1, I said I would be exploring two questions: 1. Why is society fascinated with crime? 2. The 10 percenters who don't re-offend or return to prison. My first interview is with Lisa from Manchester who has listened to every episode of Tales From The Jails, the perfect guest to get us started with delving deeper into this subject. During the three and a half years I was in prison I wrote over a million words by hand. Tales From The Jails is a c...
Thank you for listening to Tales From The Jails!! We've reached the end of Season One, my first year of incarceration, and are pressing pause on the podcast, but we will be returning in the New Year with Season Two, which turns out to be far worse than year one. This final episode ends 2016 showing that even the grim reality of 23 hour bang up doesn't stop the mayhem and madness. The episode features Into The Darkness, written and performed by The Shadow Poet and produced by Lance Thoma...
It's the 25th of December, 2016. Imagine waking up on Christmas morning with a person you only met a few months ago, not your partner or soulmate, but your pad mate, in HMP. I'm on top bunk and he's down below, two lives colliding. During the three and a half years I was in prison I wrote over a million words by hand. Tales From The Jails is a contemporaneous account of my life, and attempts to thrive rather than merely survive, whilst incarcerated. Most names have been changed. The ev...
It's the 16th of December, 2016. It's Friday. Today HMP Birmingham has turned into a riot, resulting in a complete meltdown. The official statement as of 5:00 PM is control has been lost. The G4S private prison has between four and 600 prisoners rioting, and the place is on fire. The news is showing meat wagons waiting to ship out prisoners once the officers take back control. Walton is full. In fact, most prisons are full to capacity. Prison officers and their unions have been predicting thi...
It's official. Toenails has left the building. There was no real camaraderie. Number 1, a fellow Despicable, walked with him to the meat wagon. From the rest of us however, it was more good riddance than au revoir. The place felt instantly brighter the moment the toxic mood hoover left. During the three and a half years I was in prison I wrote over a million words by hand. Tales From The Jails is a contemporaneous account of my life, and attempts to thrive rather than merely survive, wh...
