14 Years in Prison for a 2 Second Decision!

Religious Drug Dealer Chris Booth, now a reformed Christian, asks British Army Sniper Craig Harrison one question that has divided opinion for centuries: "Thou shalt not kill." Where does a Sniper stand with God after taking lives in war? Behind the scenes sits former Kidnapper Danny Harkin, offering a rare insight into organised crime, debt collection and a world few people ever get to see. Chris and Danny reveal what life was really like inside some of Britain's toughest prisons — from violence, drugs behind bars and prison politics to solitary confinement, grooming gangs, bullies, redemption and the two-second decisions that ultimately cost Chris 14 years of his life. Craig also opens up about taking lives as a Sniper, the emotional weight of combat, prize fighting, debt collecting, PTSD, suicide and his search for purpose after leaving the military. This isn't a conversation that glorifies crime. It's an honest discussion about crime, consequences, faith, forgiveness, accountability, redemption and the split-second decisions that can change your life forever. A huge thank you to Chris and Danny for trusting us with their stories and helping educate others through lived experience.
