Warning for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander listeners: this podcast contains the voice of someone who has died.

Jack Charles is a venerated Aboriginal Australian actor, but at one point addiction led him to a life of crime. For years, after curtain fell, he'd slip away to burgle houses. He spoke to Outlook's Datshiane Navanayagam.
