Only discovered the channel a couple of weeks ago n I'm hooked, proper sound content! Never had any knowledge of prisons and how they operate so this is an eye opener... always wondered how anyone could become rehabilitated by being locked up for years but these interviews really do show us that honest prison staff with respect and integrity certplay a big part in helping inmates reform themselves
Sam the enthusiasm and energy you show not just for the job you did but you also show the same two qualities when helping people in general life , fair play to you fella and good luck with the channel, top content 👍🍻
Pin numbers are 8 digits long and then hash before dailing the number. I used to commit my pin to memory and get rid of the physical pin so it doesnt get nicked and such. 2 years today I been out.
I can share a fact with you from my time on remand in A Wing of the crumlin road prison Belfast back in the early 90's, there were more microphones and cameras scattered around that place than at a golden globes red carpet event, the yard was bugged and association room heavily bugged, its a little known fact but the troubles (decisions) were conducted at the time between the crumlin road and maze prison, mostly crumlin road.., issues were never discussed in a static environment and never in association.., some things never discussed but rather written down on joined cigarette papers and passed between A Wing and B Wing, (B2 and B3).., B1 was the sex offenders.., these messages would be passed out of the prison on visits to be seen by the loyalist command, could be anything from tactics to a prison officer acting the ejit and needs a talking to on the outside (intimidation).., but on topic to this video Sam, there existed a paranoia among the prisoners that bordered on manic.., ask the wrong question and you were a target.., so very few ever discussed their cases or the cases of others.
I blame law enforcement for having these informers doing there dirty work & using there information against others just so they can get a promotion... great podcast keep up the good work buddy 👍🏼
The police wouldn't function without informers. When you put aside people being caught because they made a mistake and left compelling evidence and plain dumb luck then 95% minimum of all arrests are on the basis if information. received. Detective is a misnomer. Very little is detected.
Thank you sam. I'm really enjoying your vlogs. I'm glad to see Sam and Stephen going out for a walk in a lovely forest. I'm looking forward to seeing more interviews. Have a good day sam 😘
Yet again Sam love listening to your vlogs . Enjoy you on your own with stevie , or your intviews. Look everyday to see if you have uploaded any vlogs . Can't wait for your second book , read your first one way before you started your channel. Read your first book in around 24hrs couldn't put it down . Can't wait for to read your second.❤❤
How do, nonce and a grass,Im fuming give it NOTHING we all know what it should get, the grassing for time off NO!! YOU were brilliant explaining that perfect that was brilliant R.I.P ERIC.🙏 BRILLIANT MR SAMWORTH, THANKS 🇮🇲🇮🇲🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️ PAUL
Alright Sam, I first came across you on a podcast a while ago, I think it was Shaun Atwood's maybe and I was intrigued by your interview mainly due to the fact that I enjoy watching and reading about true crime. Listening to your life as a prison officer was well interesting, loved it. Ive only just found your channel by chance as it popped up on my feed amongst others. Immediately remembered you and thought I need to give these a watch. Not disappointed, the vlogs you do are great mate. Proper down to earth style of talking on camera and the content is excellent, all stuff no-one will ever have heard before. I've now subscribed and can't stop watching them one after the other. Top job. And your dogs name is fantastic, is it Stephen or Steven?

Thank you Sam really enjoying the vlogs as always interesting subjects nice to see you and Stephen getting some very cold fresh air.respect as always Sam.
long story wont tell it here but police asked me to work for them as an informant many years ago but i had a young child so turned it down and did my time. so glad i did.
Thanks for that Sam, I always enjoy your walk and talks. I agree, grassing someone up shouldn't solicit a lighter sentence, but I guess the thinking is...how else do you get someone to talk? Never liked bullies, and you're right, if you're going to dish it out you absolutely have to be able to take it too, Besides, a little bit of friendly banter never did anyone but the thinnest of skinned sods, any harm at all. Looked a bit chilly today, glad to see you were well rugged up, and Stevie as happy as ever. All the best.
great vlogs mate thanks, I'd say the only time for leniency would be if a prisoner gave information to the whereabouts of missing ``people`` maybe then some sort of concessions might be permitted.
had to google the hat saying as i thought fate had another meaning but the word was fight and i knew this saying. i will listen a bit more closer from now on
Sadly if it wasn’t for someone grassing the prisons would be emptier and the streets would be more dangerous. Lazy policing or is turning a grass actually policing? Personally I’m with you Sam, there is absolutely nothing wrong with an innocent person or a victim of crime going to the police for help and support but the idea that the first who turns against their codefendant gets away with it, and in the US they can get actual immunity, is repulsive to me.
@@RealPorridgePodcast if you look to America and the John Gotti mafia trial where Sammy the bull turned into the fbi informant he got away with doing less than 10 years for at least 19 murders and instead only got charged with 1 racketeering case, in exchange for bringing Gotti and the mafia empire down. Sometimes it’s beyond belief what government agencies will stoop to to meet their own interests?!! Ar seethe.
@@RealPorridgePodcastI need you to tell me who know who was or are a chis-i do,like the masons to mafia,various pdcasts-what is the joining of been a chis?only a chis would know.simple
Brilliant Mr S, I don't circulate with certain people but I know many who have been at it for years and never been picked up, I've also seen many get lenient sentences for what they've done, when they get out they think they can go back to normal.....it doesn't happen, they're marked for life and looking over their shoulder constantly and rightly so.....you can't have your cake and eat it!!!
Back in the 80's I took a helping of porridge rather than grassing. That's how it is, take it on the chin. A few years later, with a different crew. Bumped into the old crew while we were both running baccy from Belgium, small world. The kudos I earnt that day you just can't buy.
Really intelligent insightful perspective on a Very sensitive subject your 100% correct There is nothing wrong with an innocent person or a victim of crime going to the authoritys for help and support however the idea of individuals who give up information on crime not to do the right thing but to get reduced sentences is wrong anyway thank-you for doing What you do Best regards to your family give Stephen a hug from me
the only time a grass could possibly be worth it would be if they give really important info - for example the location of a body to give the family closure.
I personally believe that the majority of sentences are wrong and way too lineant , for me if you throw something as potentially life threatening as acid in someone's face you deserve a life sentence . Ok the acid may or may not kill you, you might be lucky in that respect but the life long trauma for the individual would be soul destroying, its not right ! Great vlog as always sam 🍻
Hello Steven, Well said,,absolutely true. Throwing acid in someone's face is a cowards move.The intention to maim,,the effect it has afterwards,,mental health problems,,depression,,loss of job and more,,families affected,,relationship breakdown,it's endless what comes after being attacked. Life in jail should be given..? Anyone who carried this act out has got a warped mind and there's not one excuse to justify the act,none..Good comment pal B,S3
Another top Vlog. Keep up the great work Sam. I remember this guy. And good on Eric told him to jog on😂😂😂. He got told off mark and myself too. Horrible creature. 💯
I've a mate and he's a professional prisoner in prison he is at home he's respected and admired by the cons, outside he is nobody and he can't understand why people outside don't look up to him 27years he's done and still counting. I've tried to help him but it doesn't sink in, I remain his friend.
New to your channell and liking it like the fact your from Wakefield or Leeds had family there used to live near Jimmy's hospital and my grandad used to sell papers in Leeds centre near Whitechapel I think it was called also took me a few a mins to realise who Steven was top name for a dog 🤣🤣
Hi Sam love all your content and stories fascinating. I’ve been binge watching your videos for the last few days after work chilling on settee zoned out much to the displeasure of my missus😂 have you thought about getting a Gimble for your camera so your footage is nice and smooth especially when your walking your lovely Dog🙂🐕
Blame the establishment. I think it shouldn't stand up in court coming from another criminal but the police are allowed to do it to clear the book's up I've had a padmate who grassed himself up nearly 100 tic's with only 3 charges
Evening Sam. I'm an ex con only ever went in through fighting when was young done a few years and see all the grassing bullshit goin on and yeah it is bullshit with the lenient sentences. I know what old bill would say tho. They rely on grasses a lot of the time for convictions and they would say if they didn't give a reward of a lighter sentence less people would grass. It's wrong
Hi Sam great videos,,,I’m after finding out about a book from years ago about the Manchester grasses that’s in strangeways but don’t no how I could find out about it,,if anybody got any info then contact me and I will explain why I need to see it because there’s supposed to be somebody in it that I no apparently
My own personal thoughts about grasses and sentencing, there must always be incentives for grasses but it must always reflect the crime, longest sentence I ever served was 13 days shy of one year, I can tell you that a year in prison feels like 5 years, I mean after a few months its like your outside life was a dream you had.., so if someone grasses reduce their sentence by a year as that year may not seem much to someone who has never served time in prison, but that year of my life was something I will never forget.
Glad u said this I was chopped up on in me gaff buy a bunch of scum bags a knew infront me kids missus it broke my family to bits my head still here n there I wasn't a criminal or selling drugs it was over bull shxt 20 quid n me brother the court stuff was what ruined me but being from a council estate and that a felt the grass shit I just done what was right by my children single dad now half an arm a mess after a 6 hour surgery then more surgery coz me shoulder started dislocating so yea head is messy thanks Sam coz a would never grass but I'll stand up to bullies 12 on 1 it was aswll
Keep growing boss!! So much respect 4 you I can just tell you was an amazing officer straight up honest not corrupt and fair!! ♡♡

you are right about the sentencing, it needs to be more severe for such things as grassing!

I'm sure I seen you on the snake 🐍 pit with Pablo in da house 🏠 🤔 😎
You're right Sam, I agree with you, grasses should never get favours, and lesser sentences, for snitching on others.
It's wrong !!

Agreed or maybe stop terror attack or similar. Cheers

Ok the acid may or may not kill you, you might be lucky in that respect but the life long trauma for the individual would be soul destroying, its not right ! Great vlog as always sam 🍻
Yeah I agree acid doesn’t discriminate’ innocent people could get splashed by it I remember the story about that girl too sickening
If sombody threw acid in my face and got off months later. They would dissappear.
And the last thing they see will be my face.
Hello Steven,
Well said,,absolutely true.
Throwing acid in someone's face is a cowards move.The intention to maim,,the effect it has afterwards,,mental health problems,,depression,,loss of job and more,,families affected,,relationship breakdown,it's endless what comes after being attacked.
Life in jail should be given..?
Anyone who carried this act out has got a warped mind and there's not one excuse to justify the act,none..Good comment pal
B,S3
A friend is not a grass..he is respected from the ppl that know what he does..takes out heavy dealers
Couldn't agree more with you. As an Ex Soldier who did 24years service. Bubbling is a no no.
They cause so much trouble
Sam, If you can take it, you don't give it. Great informative podcast.
Always hit the like for Sam our Goodman hope your health is fine Sam big respect
Happy new year Stevie!
Love that your dog is called Steve😀
Another top Vlog. Keep up the great work Sam. I remember this guy. And good on Eric told him to jog on😂😂😂. He got told off mark and myself too. Horrible creature. 💯
As always great story 👍
My old man was in the nick for a number of things over the years. He talked about it like it was the best place he'd been, like he was fond of it.
I've a mate and he's a professional prisoner in prison he is at home he's respected and admired by the cons, outside he is nobody and he can't understand why people outside don't look up to him 27years he's done and still counting. I've tried to help him but it doesn't sink in, I remain his friend.
I remember when this channel only had like 5k subscribers I’m not suprised how fast it’s grown either love the content
I'm not an expert on Manchester/Salford crime but I can have a pretty good guess as to who you're referring to.
Got a feeling this grasses initials DN by any chance.
In one!.
You dog is lovely,love you videos.
First story, initials DN by any chance?
It wasnt mate i honestly cant remember the lads name? Cheers

How funny my bro is called Lee Marvin 😂
Noonan mr. Samworth yeah

Blame the establishment. I think it shouldn't stand up in court coming from another criminal but the police are allowed to do it to clear the book's up I've had a padmate who grassed himself up nearly 100 tic's with only 3 charges

Love these stories,have you got any on any serial killers in there?
Have you any stories of PO’s grassing up other staff etc. That would make an interesting blog Sam.
Hi Sam great videos,,,I’m after finding out about a book from years ago about the Manchester grasses that’s in strangeways but don’t no how I could find out about it,,if anybody got any info then contact me and I will explain why I need to see it because there’s supposed to be somebody in it that I no apparently
Great vlog pal. Can't stand a grass. I call them smiling knifes. And snakes. They are worse than anyone. Can't trust them people
My own personal thoughts about grasses and sentencing, there must always be incentives for grasses but it must always reflect the crime, longest sentence I ever served was 13 days shy of one year, I can tell you that a year in prison feels like 5 years, I mean after a few months its like your outside life was a dream you had.., so if someone grasses reduce their sentence by a year as that year may not seem much to someone who has never served time in prison, but that year of my life was something I will never forget.
Has anyone got news article about acid attack story at 13 mins?
How do Sam Another great vlog as always
Snitches get stitches. End of..
Right then I've done loads of jail, is it right that some prisoners get paid in jail for grassing up other prisoners for parcels and shit like that ?
Happy Saturday Mr Samworth 🙋🏾♂️ How Are You Today ?
I do have a little laugh at your dog's name
How do, yes mate, 👍🇺🇲🗽🏴👍
I can even hear the contempt for a grass in the voice of an ex CO
The depraved ought to be admitted to an establishment where they come out non depraved.
Glad u said this I was chopped up on in me gaff buy a bunch of scum bags a knew infront me kids missus it broke my family to bits my head still here n there I wasn't a criminal or selling drugs it was over bull shxt 20 quid n me brother the court stuff was what ruined me but being from a council estate and that a felt the grass shit I just done what was right by my children single dad now half an arm a mess after a 6 hour surgery then more surgery coz me shoulder started dislocating so yea head is messy thanks Sam coz a would never grass but I'll stand up to bullies 12 on 1 it was aswll
How do, you put that perfectly 🇮🇲🇮🇲🐕🐕🏍️🏍️🏍️🐶🐶🍵 Paul.HONESTY. YES TIME OF IS WRONG BELIEVE ME
I hate the fact they do plea bargaining
Grass wouldn't have had the initials DN by any chance? Lol.
If ya can't fight wear a checked cap lol.... Thurnscoe.
