[AJHN] Glenn Broome - From Offender to Redeemer

From being riles as someone who was deemed institutionalised by a Victorian Supreme Court Judge of being institutionalised to proving him wrong and now advising magistrates and judges on sentencing approached 35 years later. Speaker: Youth Worker/Mentor/Former Ward of the State. It was 1963. An unwed mother with no family support, diagnosed with schizophrenia and certified insane at twelve, didn’t face promising prospects, handed Glenn into a local Police station. With no father on the scene, Glenn was deemed a ward of the state – his life path now determined by the government. Glenn spent the next 18 years in unsuccessful foster placements, in and out of various private and state institutions, experiencing a range of abusive encounters that included physical, emotional and sexual. Glenn experienced disconnection, isolation and personal loathing that would come to a head just prior to his 18th birthday. Glenn was arrested, charged and convicted of Armed Robbery and spent the next 5 years in Pentridge and ‘H’ Division before being released and starting a new life Interstate. Glenn now works for Victoria Legal Aid heading up a Lived Experience Advisory Panel.
