In the latest instalment of Con Juan, we go back to the very beginning - and try to piece together the jigsaw of Juan’s childhood. After Juan reveals the reasons for his life-choices, to a judge, we examine whether his claims hold any merit, and ask if his upbringing in Colombia led him to a life of crime? From Colombia to Canada, Darrell discovers how Juan once talked himself into trouble on the Canadian border.
