If you're watching, you're an offender (Episode 3)
Explicit content warning
04/12/20 • 30 min
The problem we are facing is staggering. Some experts warn 1% of the entire male population could have an interest in sex with prepubescent children.
But what do you do when that problem is in your very own home? When someone you know is watching children being raped, tortured and sexually abused online? Someone you had trusted?
In this episode of Pixels from a Crime Scene, we hear how addiction to criminal material tears families apart. We see how there is no such thing as a victimless crime where online child sexual abuse material is concerned, and how those viewing images and videos are complicit in the most horrendous abuse of innocent children.

It's not just an image (Episode 2)
It’s a global industry, and it preys on children.
A young girl is online. She makes a friend, and soon they’re chatting, making jokes together and having a good time.
But that friend is not who they say they are. Soon, the girl is being terrorised, coerced, bullied, and blackmailed into sending explicit images of herself to the stranger. All from her own bedroom in the family home.
And then it gets worse.
In this episode of Pixels from a Crime Scene, we talk to Rhiannon, a survivor of child sexual abuse, who was groomed by a predator on the internet when she was just 13. We expose how criminals are luring young victims into dangerous situations, and ask how safe are our children online?

It's not all on the dark web (Episode 4)
So, you think videos and pictures of children being sexually abused and raped only exist on the dark web? Think again.
The epidemic of criminal content is out there on the open internet. It’s being shared in apps we all use and can be found on sites where we all think everyone is safe.
In this episode of Pixels from a Crime Scene, we hop on plane. From the Netherlands to the USA we follow the digital thread and see how sometimes the worst crimes are being perpetrated out in the open, sometimes in plain sight.
We speak to investigative journalist and author/host of The Missing Cryptoqueen podcast Jamie Bartlett who takes us through the good and bad elements of the dark web.
