KEY TAKEAWAYS
For me interviewing Shamima was a scoop because I've only been working as a journalist for the last couple of yearsMy passion for adventure tourism started about twenty-five years agoI love a story and I spent time with a sniper who shared his storyI have brought back stories that people need to hear aboutFor me, podcasts are another way of getting the truth out there. It's for Shamima's story and the truth to be toldI believe there are lots of people who need to come back but I told her I believe she should go to prison if she comes back hereShe became a terrorist when she married someone who was a member of ISISShe was a normal teenager but then she changedWhen you are there you can't just leave it doesn't work like thatI've seen atrocities all over the world and have spoken to people who were forced to watch beheadings by ISISThe system in this country failed Shamima, people should have noticed if she was becoming radicalisedI think they will have her back because she knows too much but she's not a threatThere has to be a certain amount of humanity and compassionI love telling stories and It's about living a life that means something I don't want to leave this planet not having done anything
