Understanding Desistance from Crime… : DASH Story 2016-12-04

Story content

10 years' incarceration over a 20 year period in the UK penal system, alongside 17 years' heroin abuse. This began at age 15 and I have now desisted from crime for 20 years. Just achieved an upper second class BA degree in music (saxophones, guitar and vocals) and am now researching desistance theory with a view to writing an essay for a Cambridge university application—with some inside help. The plan is to tackle a Masters in criminological research at Cambridge's Institute of Criminology and continue on to PhD level. Thank you for this freedom of access.
