Rise and fall of a ‘drug kingpin’: Lukas Williams Pt.1

I Catch Killers with Gary Jubelin

Lukas Williams grew up in a world full of trouble; his father accidentally ran over his mother with a car, he fell into dealing drugs, then got addicted and began carrying out armed robberies. His teenage years were spent in and out of boys homes, followed by a decade in and out of prison. Looking back, he says he’d been hurt and wanted to hurt others. It was a way of life he had to break free from.
