Gang violence leads to murder and the rate is picking up at an alarming rate. Martyn Linton is a successfully diverted gang member. Lennox Rogers is a former gang and organised crime group member who has committed twenty two armed robberies and has stabbed multiple people. Professor Carl Chinn is a gangs specialist who has researched the evolution of gangs over time. Together they will discuss the mindset of the violent gang member and how their acts often lead to murder. There will be a question and answer session at the end.
