    Description

    Jon Watts was 18 years old when he stabbed another young man because he was angry. He was angry because he felt society had given up on him and other young people. Society had not given up on Jon, but this is how he felt. And it added to the knife crime statistics.  Once he was shown a different path and trained as a chef he went on to work as a sous chef in one of Jamie Oliver's restaurants. Now he owns his own private business, adding to the economic statistics.  Links:https://twitter.com/jonwatts88?s=20Jon WattsSecond Chance: facebook.com/RaphaelRowePodcast/Second Chance Webpage: Second ChanceWebsite: Raphael-Rowe.com  Instagram: @areporterTwitter: @areporter) Sound by Joe Adams Podcasts| Audio AvalancheSupport the show

    Second Chance is a podcast series that explores the theme of second chance. It raises the questions who deserves a second chance, who decides who gets a second chance and what a second chance actually means. On this podcast we speak to people from all walks of life about their experiences, some who have been given a second chance in life, some who might be considered to be beyond deserving a second chance. The host of the podcast series is Raphael Rowe, host of the critically acclaimed series ‘Inside the World's Toughest Prisons’ on Netflix. He is also a former correspondent for the world's longest running BBC TV current affairs show Panorama the BBC Radio 4 Today programme as well as a regular contributor on The One Show and Sunday Morning Live on BBC One. In 1988, aged 20, he was sentenced to life imprisonment for a murder and robbery he did not commit. In July 2000, after 12 years in prison, the Court of Appeal quashed his wrongful convictions and he was freed.
