Sophie was born in the UK but moved to Texas with her family as a young child. Her life developed with some of the usual pressures a young woman might expect, with relationships, motherhood and loneliness all presenting hazards. But a meeting with a man who swept her off her feet led her down a path which would completely turn her life upside down.

Dr Sally Tilt and Dr Kerensa Hocken are forensic psychologists who work in prisons. Their job is to help people in prison understand the harm they鈥檝e caused, identify why it happened and work out how to make changes to prevent further harm after they鈥檝e been released.

In Behind the Crime, they take the time to understand the life of someone whose crimes have led to harm and prison.
Through this extended interview with Sophie, we follow the extraordinary story of how a 12-month prison sentence completely changed her life.
*Sophie is not her real name.
