Episode 4: The Helpline

  • Summary

  • Warning: This episode contains content related to child sex abuse. Listen with care.

    The seizure of a video from a New Zealand paedophile sparks a dizzying chain of events in faraway Arizona: an arrest, a suicide – and revelations that a serial child rapist had confessed to his Mormon bishop, and the church had used its “Abuse Helpline” to cover it up.

    Family violence:

    If you’re in danger now phone the police on 111 or ask neighbours or friends to ring for you.
