Show Notes

Countless victims over a 20 year period, only uncovered thanks to the bravery of the victim-survivors who came forward and told their story. In the mid 1990s, Detective Troy Grant received a report from two men who had been sexually abused by Paedophile Priest Vincent Ryan. What followed was an investigation that uncovered decades of horrific and ongoing abuse within the Catholic Church. 

Join Brent Sanders as he unpacks this investigation with Former Police Minister Troy Grant, as he walks us through the process of handling an investigation like this and what it means to the victim survivors.
