Today on the Bad Boys we chat with Russell Manser, a convicted bank robber, heroin addict and survivor of institutionalised sexual abuse. 23 years in prison and a string of abuses put Russell onto a trajectory of addiction, crime and over 30 years of hiding the secret he has been hiding.

The inspiration behind the movement The Voice of a Survivor, that has helped hundreds more like him break the cycle of abuse, Russell has released a book with the help of another “notorious” ex-con, John Killick to shed some light on the subject of abuse.
