  • In our brand new DEEP series we interview fascinating people who have lived unique lives. In this episode we have talked to Lee Davies, who used to work as a prison guard in the North of England and got corrupt. Lee shared his lifestory and explained how he got onto the wrong path and what followed after he was caught.
    Thanks to Lee for taking part! You can follow him here - www.instagram....

    I'll gladly back other comments commending the channel for cutting out interviewer questions and over all production quality. Hats off to Lee for telling his story so well and openly sharing his human fallible imperfections.
    You have another subscriber, cheers.

    I was an officer for 30 years in various jails, when you’re working with the same inmates over a long period of time you get on friendly terms and sometimes they test the boundaries, just got to be alert to what’s happening, I never got pulled into trafficking but mobile phones and drugs weren’t a particular issue when I served- this ex officer made mistakes, it’s a difficult environment.

    What he did was wrong, but his expiation seems genuine. I only say this because I have also seen an interview where a disgraced officer talks about their wrongdoings gleefully with a odius leer, as if it was all in jest. Bearing the consequences of your actions steers you towards the light. Good on you.
