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 Bizina 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.

The future is unpredictable at times that the Open University are the experts in distance learning,

allowing you to fit study around your life.

What's more, you'll have support from dedicated tutors every step of the way.

Now, suddenly your possibilities are open.

Search the Open University to find out more.

The Open University, the future is open. The producers of this podcast recognize the traditional owners of the land on which it's recorded.

They pay respect to the Aboriginal elders past, present and those emerging.

This episode of Australian True Crime is about online child exploitation.

And it includes some disturbing content right from the beginning.

So please take a moment now to think about who's listening and whether or not it's appropriate.

With that said, it's always a good idea to speak to children of all ages about online predators.

The Australian East Safety Commission surveyed frontline specialist law enforcement professionals from around the world in early 2021 and their research found that there have been marked

increases in both online risk-taking by minors and in live streaming of abuse material

since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

If you would like to talk to someone about online exploitation, you can call Crime Stoppers

on 1-800, triple-3, 0.0, or go to Crimestoppers.com.
