Listen "What's behind the country's ram raid crime wave?"
Episode Synopsis
There have been multiple, high-profile ram raids in New Zealand in the past two weeks. The perpetrators are becoming increasingly brazen, targeting major malls and department stores. What’s worse is that many of those committing these crimes tend to be mere teenagers. So why has this problem become so widespread? And how much worse could it become? Today, New Zealand Herald senior writer Jane Phare joins Damien to discuss what she has learnt about what's causing this crimewave.
