In an emotionally-fueled interview on last night’s Late Late Show, open ex-con Gary Cunningham spoke about the exact moment his life changed forever.

Gary was thrown into Ireland’s biggest slammer, Mountjoy Prison for a total of 3 years for possession.

He spoke about basically being somewhat of a renegade when he was young and a tearaway who put his mother through all sorts of torture.

But it wasn’t until a couple of weeks inside the prison, his first visit, his mother came to say hello. She had just had a hip operation and was barely able to walk.

Gary said that it was that exact moment that changed his life and he admirably left crime behind him from that visit.

Positive reactions to the interview with interest, intrigue and admiration being thrown the Dubliner’s way.
