"I got tortured by my own friends" for not selling drugs, 17-year-old Dontae says. Across the UK, thousands of young people are being groomed into so-called county lines drug networks, where promises of money and belonging quickly turn into threats, violence and debt. Channel 4 News was given rare access to those affected by county lines crimes including Dontae, a teenager, who said "his face was set on fire" for refusing to engage in illegal activity. #CountyLines #Police #Teenager #UK #C4News
