      Literally, see how she shifted the blame at the end after saying she spent 50k. “The system made him an addict” not her glazing him. But yh the system is broken, just stupid example, and bad parent. Her only example is paying for his holidays. Really speaks a lot about her parenting style.

      A drug free wing was like a covid free ward in hospital a few years ago. Unfortunately I was locked last year. I got transferred to a brand new prison. Where I was, was right opposite one of these so called drug free wings. There excise yard was right by my window and every time they came out for excise they would bang on my window asking for so and so to go there. Obviously to buy drugs.

      Also the spice on the streets has brodifacoum rat poison in it if you talk to the authorities, it blocks the enzyme from breaking the drug down so you get longer effects and people bleed / bruise easier on it then once they’re in withdrawal it’s more severe 🤣

The hardest thing is when you as a parent step up to try to stop it happening and find that no one is listening. This mother has done well to get this issue out into the open and aired on screen. So many parents are struggling because of situations like these, and they all feel so alone within their own situation. Thank you for being a voice for those who have been silenced ❤

      I have been told they are the main dealers and they charge several times the normal cost on the street.
      Of course it's also smuggled in by some visitors. Even if there is high security. Apparently they use elderly relatives, especially little old women who look a bit middle class, also disabled visitors and they don't tend to search them so often even in high security.
      There is such a well known big drug problem inside that I think it must be true.

    Taking no accountability for our own actions are the base of all addicts problem and I know, I was one for years… I have been sober for 16 yrs thank goodness for the support of 12 step groups… there are many 12 step groups inside, your son could choose to attend those and not use drugs instead ??

      No, thats incorrect. A lot of the drugs that orignaly got banned, weed, ecstacy etc meant that people then tried to take chemicals that are really very similar but produce different effects. Spice for example is a cannabis replacement, the first few versions werent actualy that bad but then the government banned them so more dangerous versions were produced. the entire blame lays on the government and the police.

    I was an addict, clean since 2009. Ive been to prison & never once was i forced to take any drugs. Don't get me wrong, inmates bring it in & so do some staff, but no one is forced to take drugs in prison. This guy obviously wanted weed, couldn't get any so took the spice instead. Anyone who's been in prison would know this. This guy needs to learn accountability & so does the mother. UK & Aust prisons are far better than the US prisons, at least inmates are given the chance to rehabilitate. This mother says ger sons now an addict & the system isn't being accountable. Well how about your son takes accountability & maybe his life would change 4 the better. Pathetic.

    (b)supplying or attempting to supply a controlled drug to another in contravention of section 4(1) of this Act, or offering to supply a controlled drug to another in contravention of section 4(1);

    How many guards have been hired in the last 10 yrs courtesy of diversity polices? Look at your demographic between now and just 10 years ago. There, you will find why corruption has increased. It’s not a money issue. It’s a cultural issue. The people you are hiring think it’s ok to bring in contraband.

    • @reevs2153
      @reevs2153 8 місяців тому

      Ridiculous. The reason prison is so poorly ran is because of austerity. Thousands of experienced screws were laid off and many prisons were privatised and then ran for profit. So new very inexperienced staff were hired at very low levels of wages. This made them open to corruption through naivety and financial temptation. This made prisons more unsafe meaning more prison officers left or began to ring in sick regularly. This means prisons are now often heavily understaffed with zero morale meaning officers dont have the experience, motive or capacity to crackdown on substances.

      This comment is bollox (in my opinion).
      I was a horrible druggy, alcoholic, violent criminal back in the day an served 19 years all together for (most) of my actions in my younger years, I come from a family that are and always have been completely law abiding, non drug taking, not even any smokers in my family. They all have there own homes, many have businesses if not they work or retired. Even my little cousins that haven’t hit 25 yet have there own homes that was brought buy themselves.
      I was taking all kinds of drugs, drinking all the time, was a horrible person to be around o can imagine. I was actively looking to commit crimes all day and night long. It wasn’t until my mother passed away that something clicked In my head, in my heart, in my personality and in my conscious and became a completely different person.
      I agree there are families that just breed criminals and horrible people that will not contribute to society in any way shape or form. The only way to eradicate this is by them to stop mating and producing more of them.

    My other half and I watched 2 piggies openly dealing from their car outside of a pub in Selsey, West Sussex. That was about 20 odd years ago. We watched them from the other side of the road. They and the buyers didn't give a hoot we were watching. After all, who would you tell?
    Word is that piggies often keep half of whatever they find in a drugs busts and only log half, and that they also keep any cash and other valuables such as jewelry that they find.
    I suspect that has always happened to an extent but more so since the misgovernment made so many redundant in 2014, then later replaced them with the ilk they employ today who it seems are much worse. Don't even know their oath off by heart. These days even criminals with convictions are employed as piggies. Apparently, "minor" crimes such as petty theft and "small" drug offences can be overlooked now.
