Young People 16-25 - Social Media Role in Youth Crime

Looking for a young person with personal experience of crime for an article Hi everyone, My name is Chard van den Berg and I’m a journalist at Vrij Nederland, a Dutch magazine. For an article, I’m looking into how social media has changed the way young people become involved in crime. Has the threshold become lower in recent years? Do platforms such as Snapchat and Instagram make it easier for young people to come into contact with criminal networks, including those who do not grow up in neighbourhoods where crime has traditionally been more prevalent? I’m looking for someone who has personal experience with this and would be willing to speak with me about it. If this applies to you, or if you know someone who might be willing to talk, I’d be very grateful if you could get in touch. Participation can be completely anonymous. You can reply here or contact me at [email redacted]. Many thanks in advance. Best, Chard van den Berg
