'I stabbed my sister' - former girl gang leader

A rising number of women are involved in violence, from girl gangs to pub brawls. One in five of all violent crimes and a third of domestic violence incidents reported to the England and Wales Crime survey involved a female perpetrator. Former London girl gang leader Tracey Miller told us how she stabbed her own sister, while Cherie Johnson explained how the lifestyle made her feel powerful - but she had to leave it behind when she had a baby. We also discussed possible solutions with Nadine Woodley who works with young women involved in violence.
