You made a mistake and you paid for it dearly, clearly. Yet you are here with full transparency and honesty. I truly wish you the best in life.

he made no excuses. i gotta respect that

This guy is my best mate. He lives in Lancaster, United Kingdom, he gave up being a prison officer and became an electrician, gave that up and then he became a bus driver and now he's gone back being an electrician.

Done your time and rebuilding your future respect to you! I hope you find peace now and live a fulfilled life 👊🏻

I feel HMP should hire guys like this to talk from the heart to trainee prison officers. Even if it’s just on a consultant basis. Imagine starting out in this career and sitting in a room with this guy telling his story from the heart. I think it would be enough to prevent at least some folks from making the wrong choices. Anyway, as many have said before me, I wish him only the best going forward. He’s paid the price. Don’t let life break you bud. Edit: I originally commented while still watching. Glad to hear HMP have actually approached him.

I have so much respect for this guy, it must be such a hard job to do, you can see hes deeply ashamed of what he's done.

Currently a Prison Officer in Australia. I agree, the training isn't enough, and Corrections has changed. A lot of people are entering the career that shouldn't be

Guy had no phone credit to call his dad, but can arrange for 400 pound outside for a phone. That should be a huge red flag. Glad he's turned his life around now. Hope he continues doing well.

Glad he found redemption after all the challenges. Real life challenges 😔. Hope his story can help others.

Great interview and incredible story, hope all works out for the guy.

I really respect all the interview subjects for sharing their experiences, it takes a lot to open up and talk candidly like that knowing that millions will see it. I think this series is helping with showing different perspectives which encourages less judgement

I admire that guy for getting through all of this and now standing strong and getting his life back together. Dont ever give up guys!

The whole process has affected this bloke deeply , emotionally , mentally and physically. All for a few quid. I can see the regret in him , time has been served hope you can rebuild a life for yourself.

Wow, you went through some tough sh*t and came out the other side self aware and ethically/morally strengthened. Though I don't know you, I am proud of (and inspired by) you, Lee.

The honesty and clarity we are witnessing in these conversations is healing us.

surprised they did not place him in protective custody during his sentence. could've gone wrong on soooo many levels.

I actually like this lad. Respect and honest about his intentions. You can tell he has a good heart. It happens in the prison system AND out, more than you think. Officers who are vulnerable get manipulated and the money draws them in and it gets to a vicious cycle. He made a mistake, he admitted to it and yes he has paid the price for it. I hope his future is bright and I wish nothing but the best for him! I hope he gets back to a fulfilling life! Some people don't deserve a second chance but I do believe he does. All the best

Seems like a genuine bloke, a complete open book Respect to the bloke for his complete honesty

one of the most beautiful interviews I've ever seen, best of luck to you. best of luck to anyone who sees this and is institutionalized by any system
