Show notes – Episode 3
Kam gets Iggy to open up about his family and living circumstances that led to his very first crime. Don’t worry though, it’s not all feelings and sad tales of juvenile delinquency! We talk about those very first crimes that kids and young adults commit, including a famous author who went from stealing apples to armed robbery and how those first “gateway crimes” lead to future offenses.
