Reach out to your son. He was 12, probably angry and probably spent the last 12 years being told you're a bad person. My dad never reached out and I was 11 when he walked out on me. From my perspective I always thought it was him that needed to fight for my acceptance and attention, forgiveness and by the time I became an adult I felt I never needed him in the first place. However, if he called and apologised to me and was genuinely sincere about it, I would have probably met him, sadly that's never happened. You'll regret it if you never try...

100% reach out and don’t give up as it took me 27 years to be able sit down with dad to realise what he went through to understand not to hate and it mad about his actions and to accept the repercussions of his life to who he became. It takes an adult to understand life and put our self in other persons shoes. Not that, that’s an excuse but we can understand more as adults to make our own decisions and assumptions. As as a child we take on what our loved ones think around us may it be wrong or right

@@frederickhenley8897 I believe that children learn from their parents. So if a parent demonstrates to the child that he/she is not worth putting aside their fears to try to develop a relationship with that child, the child will definitely internalize that and would not know how to start the relationship with the parent. I believe the onus is on the person who has the most power in that relationship, i.e., the parent. My sister's daughter was prevented from spending time with my sister. My niece were told a lot of lies by her father. He tried everything within his power to keep my niece from my sister. My sister had to go to court so that she could be with her child. Anyone who has had to depend on the courts to decide who their child should live with knows it is a nightmare. Family members encouraged my sister to not bother with fighting in court, and to wait until her daughter was grown up to try to connect with her. My sister wanted my niece to know that she would do anything to have her in her life, however, my niece still rejected her. My sister's efforts paid off eventually, though, because my niece is 28 years now and she and my sister are very close. She's old enough now to say that she wanted to be with her mom (my sister), but was too scared to ask because she felt like it would have made her dad angry.

This has to be everyone’s worse nightmare, being falsely accused of the most unforgivable crime and everyone you cared about not believing you. I remember I once read a news article online years ago about how a man survived a death row sentence after he was falsely accused of assaulting woman and then brutally murdering her and nearly every single evidence pointed at him and despite taking a polygraph test to prove his innocence, he was still convicted. Apparently the crime happened around a time when there wasn’t that much forensic science and he also had a history of untreated cardiac problems so he looked guilty as sin at the time and the poor man did not get released from prison until he was old and frail. Thankfully somebody heard his pleas and decided to get the case reopened with modern forensic work and he requested another test which actually showed he was innocent but the poor guy will never ever get the 70 years of his life back, it’s truly heartbreaking 😢💔

He’s describing a world that runs parallel to the rest of the world. I was sent to jail because somebody lied and the police believed her story without even investigating because, just like Raphael’s case, if they had done their job of investigating, the truth was right under their noses. I had to rebuild my life, and rebuild my business after paying thousands to the lawyers. Now, I’m launching a tech company and will take that same technology to benefit those of us who have found ourselves without a home. Thank you to both of you

He needs to reach out to his son. He is the parent, it is his responsibility. He says he feels it is up to his son to reach out, but as he mentioned that is due to fear. That is a chance he has to take. His son is probably thinking if he really cared about me, he would fight for me. It’s sad. We can never really imagine what he went through being wrongly accused.

Have watched Raphael's Netflix documentaries a tonne and was very pleased to see you sitting down with him, Steven. I never knew 80% about his life and this was such a great insight. I could have very much gone down the same route, I was involved with a group when I was younger that was just not me and I luckily got out just after my time at college. The tipping point to go down a certain path is always right there and it's very difficult in modern-day society with the pressure that young people have to live through to actually go down the right path, it's a struggle and I think a lot of people should see this discussion, it will help people a lot. Thank You.

@@raia9I think people need to be educated about Mr. Nelson Mandela. He was not imprisoned for being a black man. He was imprisoned for being a terrorist. He made bombs and bombed innocent civilians in a church. Yes, he was justifiably angry, because of the apartheid system, but he was a violent young man. He was incredibly intelligent, and became a lawyer during his confinement. He spent some years in a cell, but for the majority of his imprisonment, he was moved into a three bedroom house, in a different location, where, yes, he was confined, but had all the facilities and amenities, of a normal household, and being looked after by two prison wardens, who prepared his meals, and ensured that his laundry was done, and he made friends with his wardens, and was not mistreated by them, and had all his needs attended to, during those years. However, for 27 years of his life, he was unable to be free. When he was released, he eventually became president of South Africa, and he was, by his own admission, a calmer and more forgiving man, in his later years. When I was sixteen, he lived in the street where I lived, and there he and a friend stayed, and manufactured bombs, to be used in terrorist activities. This was approximately 70 years ago, and he was living in an area, during the apartheid era, in an upmarket area. Please make sure your facts are correct, and people are not misinformed.

Mine was the medical institutions, not the legal one. But his 10 years equalled to my 10......but I was able to open my doors, was familiar with technology etc. My heart goes out to this man and my admiration follows in how he has used his own experience to free others in the restrictions they might face.

Putting people and animals in cages doesn’t work. Mental health in prisons needs to change. The goal is to get them back into society and be productive and not hurt others. The prisoners who can’t be changed don’t need to be treated with abuse either. They are there to keep society safe and their punishment is their loss of freedom. It’s not society’s job to seek revenge on people. We can do better.

Watching this as a criminloogy student, i have always been interested in the experances that Raphael has been through having watched his netflix documentary and read up on his case and wrongful convictions. This podcast has really enlightend me to the real aspects of the criminal justice systems and how the public views convicted criminals wrongful or not. It has made me consider writing about this as a dissertation, possibly how the media and police officers can hider investigations into cases both accurate convicions and wrongful ones. This story needs to be shared for people to understand that you understand the individual before making judgments whatever the circumstances!!

Going back 35 years my nephews were invited to a summer celebration in the prison at the end of the road. The prisoners put on a short play followed by a BBQ. The children were treated inordinately well and came home with bags of sweets and treats that the inmates had saved their money for, worked hard for and gladly gifted to all the children who attended the event. The prison is now closed but while it was open and accepting prisoners, it was a large part of the community. Celebrities used to pop up and play an impromptu concert, the children would go along on Halloween and the inmates would gather in the hall while the children did their "guizing" in their Halloween costumes and the inmates gave a huge round of applause and treats when they finished. It's a shame that prisons can't be like this anymore. Health and safety would prevent any event. But back in those days it was a valuable part of the local community, the staff lived nearby and the prison encouraged interaction with the community. One instance I remember after a bad storm, the inmates along with the army from the other end of town, teamed up and did some repairs to buildings to make them safe for use. They cleared the streets of debris and downed trees etc. This was all done the morning after the storm hit at night. Changed days

Pretty disheartening, seeing the way prisons are often run, and the stigma that goes with being an ex convict. Warms my heart that those prisoners, all those years back, at least weren’t shunned and were given opportunities to still be a part of the community, despite their ongoing time. I hope they were all able to reintegrate into society without any major issues ❤

This is by far your best interview Steven, utterly compelling. Thanks!

@@tinas2857 yes I agree and I've forgiven many people, many of them don't know and some are deceased. I should have worded it a bit better by explaining that when forgiving is not right for me at the time, I choose the option of letting go instead. You can call it the next best thing. It aids the healing process for me and I acknowledge that while there's no doubt trauma has affected me, it doesn't have to dictate how I live the rest of my life :)

Why did you help Steven? Because he needed you to. I spent 40 years teaching lots of struggling teenagers. Glad you feel respect for those who do it but know this, I got much more from those teenagers than I could ever have given to them. It reassures me to hear this story. Thank you. It also taught me a lot. I am so glad I clicked play.

Of course, wrongful conviction wasn’t a mistake on his part. So here we have someone who like many more of us, was born and grew up in a deprived area with certain family dysfunctionalities and who runs with a number of people who do not bring out his best. It’s the mistakes at this point that he shows great character for rectifying. He’s even more amazing though, because he recovers from the blow of his wrongful conviction and yet doesn’t appear to be bitter. No he’s channelled his anger into helping and giving a voice to others. That’s why this story is humbling.

I got an enormous amount from this extremely emotive and inspiring conversation - Raphael's deep understanding of his experience, the deep intelligence, the authenticity of this whole interview was/is just an amazing listen. Amazing. I relate to it and identify with him, not because of being imprisoned, but through receiving a life-changing diagnosis (ADHD) late in life (58). Due to incorrect diagnosis and lack of correct treatment, years of my adult life were damaged by self-medication; emotional dysregulation; fear; subsequent suffering to my children. All compounded by the damage of being brought up by a highly narcissistic father who was frustrated by me. I was academically gifted but failing in adulthood due to this lack of diagnosis and treatment and paid such a heavy price, both myself and my children. So - I understand the grief of losing the best years of my life, and not knowing what I could have been, and that some things (people lying about you and scapegoating you because you are blamed for what you could not control) are things you come to terms with, but cannot forgive. Thank you for this incredible podcast and I will follow up both podcast and Raphael's series.

Learning how you got your face knifed opened by helping a woman, Just shows how totally humbling of a Man U are. There is NO doubt this interview will help others. I hope your Son realises how much he’s missing out on you.And it’s simply cruel of a Mum to cloud their children as she’s infact robbed him of so much & lie 4 money to deny u of knowing ur dad.If he ever reads this comment, drop ur Ego & I would put money on it , it’s a decision u won’t regret.Bottom line we are Humans trying to do our best but when we know better we do better. 5 star ⭐️ Guest.
