"I’m the Danger": Life as a Gang Slave | DEEP

In this episode we spoke to Sosa Henkoma, a former gang member who was forced to traffic guns and drugs for more than 10 years as a young child. Sosa told us how he was first lured into crime, how he was forced to traffic firearms and drugs across county lines, how he ended up in prison and what made him turn his life around and discover all of this time he was a victim of modern day slavery. 00:00 - Childhood 01:33 - Relationship With Step-Mum & Abuse 05:50 - Foster family 07:26 - County Lines 15:01 - 'Olders' 19:45 - On Being Stabbed 20:40 - First Arrest 25:17 - Leaving Gang Life and Second Arrest 29:35 - Modern Day Slavery & Finding Purpose Thanks to Sosa for taking part!
