    My man in the blue hoodie, I don't know you, but I want so badly for the rest of your life to be easy. I had some of what you had growing up, though not as extreme, but I did see some of that same level of violence happen to some childhood friends in the projects. When a shitty parent is willing to hurt their child terribly right in front of their friends, you can only imagine what they do behind closed doors. Your story had me crying because I recognized some of that frustration and rage and sadness from my own life. Just know that there are people out here who understand. All the love, my guy.

    Feel so bad for the fella with the blue hoodie. His story is heartbreaking. My dads uncle was Billy Hill so I’m no stranger to this life, my dad had a rough childhood but I didn’t. I was lucky. My dad is 81 now and this life is far behind my family but it is still utterly fascinating, sad, dangerous, vicious and many other things. But out of it all I can remember for us, family was and still is everything. You protect your own.

      Not always. My dad physically, verbally, emotionally and sexually abused me. My mum abused me, my stepdad used to pick me up by my ears and swing me around.
      I went into foster care, my foster dad had an affair so he and my foster mum had arguments, he's stolen 60,000 from my foster mum, my foster sister steals from her and has stolen from me. But she's a matriarch and not perfect herself. She is bossy. But I care more about her than anyone.
      From an abusive home to a broken one. And I feel like I'm better than them, keep my head down and go to a genuine job.

      that is not true. i have a degree in criminology and psychology and i am a trauma survivor myself. traumatic events (particularly childhood abuse that goes on for an extended period of time) can be a contributing factor in peoples criminality or bad acts, but having a terrible childhood does not mean people are or will turn into terrible people. abused people can develop ptsd or cptsd, depression and anxiety, anger issues, trust issues, paranoia, etc. and may be involved with drugs and/or alcohol and risk taking behaviour. they can also feel they aren’t understood by others and don’t feel like they are accepted by society. these can all contribute to criminality but abuse, trauma and any of the other factors i have mentioned here do not mean someone is a terrible person who is destined to offend.
      i could go on and on about this but i’ll leave it there for now.

    In my time I've worked with two colleagues who were innocent victims of separate armed robberies. Both were very traumatised (afaik they haven't gone on to become gangsters because of their experiences). One, a shadow of their former selves, still relives the terror everyday but tries to get on with their life and work as best they can. The other, well they really tried to do the same for many years but in the end felt the only way to escape their terror was to... - one of their kids found the b ody the next day.

    A very open and honest account from all four concerned. A lot of us outsiders portray Gangsters with a glitz and glamour lifestyle. These genuine accounts would suggest it isn`t what we think. There is a lot of deep seated anger and hatred that may have led them into this sort of world and it all ended with a hefty chunk of their lives in the slammer.

    I know experienced Police, (I am an Ambo) it is amazing what intelligence the Police have on criminals, professional criminals know the investigating Officers well a bit like work colleagues (enemies can be very close even friendly), ie “in the Bill Inspector Burnside” was called Mr Burnside by the professional criminals on his London Patch, many were his informers too.

    It is very interesting that these criminals seem like “normal folk” discussing there outrageous exploits ie armed robbery, drug dealing and various gangster activities, it is their willingness to participate in these major crimes which makes them very hardened criminals not minor criminals. Linda would do an armed robbery then go out for drinks in the East End Clubs with friends (extraordinary lady like in the “the Sweeney 1970’s”).

    • @lucywing8490
      @lucywing8490 Рік тому +1

      this is most likely because they don’t see themselves as criminals. they see themselves as normal folk because this is what is normal to them. i’m not saying it’s right but it clearly became normal for them. i’d say all of us have committed a crime (even if it’s minor) but we don’t see ourselves as criminals. this all relates to labelling theory which is a very interesting concept i covered in my criminology and psychology degree.
