Conversations with Criminals

Colin Higgins brought two very dangerous murderers and paedophiles to justice. He refuses to be a victim of crime and in this episode he talks very candidly about how he and 15 other boys were groomed and sexually abused when they were teenagers. He describes how the two men intimidated and manipulated their victims and family. He also talks about how they boasted about killing a woman who was trying to protect one of the boys they were abusing and how they were finally put in prison for murder. This is a perspective on crime I never thought I would get.

Please share it. Thankyou.

This week Matt is joined by his friend Nik Coppin in the port of Estepona in Spain. We speak to the Mother of Estepona – Paula AKA Mucky Fuddle. She talks about running a brothel, running her business from inside the notorious Alhaurin prison, the time she was nearly done for attempted murder and gives an insight into why she has lived a life of crime. A fascinating and unexpected conversation...

This episode is a conversation with a former heroin addict who became a dealer and then tried to kill himself when he messed up a drug deal and cost his suppliers money. We talk about the life of an addict, dealing heroin and what it takes to climb the ladder as a drug dealer. He is very honest about being an addict for ten years. It is insightful and hopeful. He now works in a rehab unit as a counsellor.

The third generation of men in his family to go to jail, today's guest describes his son as a “straight goer” who has nothing to do with crime. The chain of crime has been broken and this is the story of growing up with parents who were in and out of prison in Scotland. Making the decision to move to London, we discuss the art of hoisting as well as robbing banks in the late 80's and early 90's.
