Congratulations to 94-year-old
John Hilton on the release of his audiobook! Out of all of our podcast guests,
John served the most UK prison time: 45 years!
His book is available worldwide
on Amazon in all formats (ebook, paperback, audio) titled Armed and Dangerous:
London Gangster's Path to Multiple Murders and 45 Years in Prison.
DESCRIPTION:
After an astonishing
45-year journey through the labyrinthine confines of every single UK prison,
John Hilton, now 94, who holds the dubious title of being one of the
longest-serving criminals in UK history, is finally breaking his silence.
In his compelling
autobiography, he offers a gripping and unfiltered account of his tumultuous
life, from his tragic beginnings in the aftermath of World War II to his
descent into a life of crime.
Hilton's first stint
in a young offenders' prison at the age of sixteen came about when he was
caught stealing money from the till of a local fruit and veg stall where he
worked. During this dark period, he suffered life-altering injuries while
incarcerated, losing several fingers and he quickly learned how to navigate the
harsh realities of the prison system.
These traumatic
experiences only fuelled Hilton's dangerous path into a life of armed robberies
and even murder, cementing his dangerous mind-set.
On one fateful night
in 1978, during a robbery gone wrong, Hilton shot a diamond merchant in the
back, and accidentally shot his crime partner. He was faced with an
uncomfortable decision: whether to let his friend bleed to death and to discard
the body or to take him to a hospital, running the risk of being caught for a
double homicide.
Detailing the
ever-changing prison regime through the decades, Hilton's autobiography is not
merely a chronicle of wrongdoing but a tale of sacrifice, honour and
resourcefulness. He candidly takes readers on a journey through his ruthless
and unforgiving mind. This deeply personal account is a must-read for anyone
interested in the criminal justice system, the psyche of a dangerous armed
robber, the old East End of London and the remarkable gangsters it produced. on the release of his audiobook! Out of all of our podcast guests,
