Show Notes

Dozens of young girls were subjected to years of sexual abuse and trafficking, only to be consistently let down by every institution that was supposed to protect them. 

The police response was so poor, Maggie Oliver left her 16-year career with the Greater Manchester Police so she could blow the whistle on the consistent failures of the police. 

If you or anyone you know needs help:

  • Lifeline (Crisis support and suicide prevention) 13 11 14
  • 1800 Respect (National sexual assault, family and domestic violence counselling line) 1800 737 732
