Shadd Maruna and Fergus McNeill on The Road From Crime

Sarah Esther Lageson on December 18, 2012

This week we talk with Shadd Maruna and Fergus McNeill about their documentary project, The Road From Crime. This documentary was produced as part of the larger Discovering Desistance Project, which aims to share knowledge and improve understanding of why people desist from crime. First, we hear a clip from the opening sequence of the film, then we talk with Shadd and Fergus themselves as they describe the process of producing this project.

Thanks for setting this up. We almost sound cogent. Fitting that, in the title, you have us on the Road from Crime ourselves :-)

It's our understanding that it's an unending journey, Fergus!

Lovely. Thanks. Already uploaded the doc to my course website for next semester. One version has Finnish subtitles! As a Finn, I'm amazed.
