Four years since the release of 'Out of the Box: The Story of Leory Smith', Leroy has collaborated with James Seymour to write the second edition of his book with additional chapters.Out of the Box is the story of Leroy Smith, who was sentenced to 25 years' imprisonment, for the shooting of two police officers in Brixton in 1994. Out of the Box will take you on a tour of the gangster lands of London, New York and Kingston, Jamaica, before showing you inside the Box that is the British prison system today, where all previous pecking orders, criminal or political, have been superseded by the rule of the Deen, highly organised and disciplined Muslim convicts, who answer to neither gangster nor governor, but only to Allah.Out of the Box will also take you outside of these Boxes and provide you with some eye-opening analysis and insights into the activities of those who rule over us - politicians present and past, such as David Cameron, Michael Howard and London mayor Sadiq Khan.Plus an account from one of the police officers, James Seymour, in his own words.
'Out of the Box is an excellent read, a brutally honest account of the making of a criminal, which pulls no punches, or makes excuses, just says it as it was. This is a fascinating and valid account of the cost to society when young, damaged lives are not repaired. It deserves to be very widely read. Now out of the box and free, Leroy Smith is setting out on a new and straighter path. I wish him every success. He has more than paid his dues.'
Eric Allison, Guardian prisons correspondent
