We're bringing Australian True Crime live to Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne this July,

and I have to tell you that Brisbane sold out already.

Good for you, Brisbane, so we've quickly added a second show.

Now we can't keep adding more shows, so please make sure you get your tickets. Our special guests,

our forensic criminologist Santee Mallet in Brisbane and Sydney and the one and only Charlie Bazzina in

Melbourne. There'll be a Q&A of course so you can ask your own burning questions on the night but you have to book quickly.

We acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which this podcast is recorded.

We pay our respects to their elders, past and present,

and to Aboriginal elders emerging. The following podcast contains accounts of sexual assault.

Listener discretion is advised.

I don't think I've ever met any victim that meets and fits that criteria for the perfect passive victim,

but to be not viewed in a negative way in a courtroom

you have to actually play that role and how deeply damaging that is for us as

individuals. regular listeners to Australian True Crime will know that we've featured the work of

journalist Nina Fennell several times this year and

they let her speak and let us speak campaigns.

Nina's brought a number of issues to our attention. We started on a high note with

the repeal of laws in Tasmania and the Northern Territory that it prevented victims of sexual assault from telling their own stories under their own names.

Tasmanian Janelle O'Connor joined us to tell her story for the first time.

And here we are how many years later?

26.

And you're allowed to tell us your story?
