Summary

Disturbing photos of an employee’s young family member are found stored on his work computer, launching a police investigation led by Detective Carrie. As the case unfolds, she uncovers a startling pattern of predatory behavior and repeated crimes against minors. One of his victims, once young and powerless, has grown up and is ready to fight back. Together she and Carrie work to bring this real crime story to a close and ensure justice is finally served.

Detective Carrie's law enforcement career has spanned over 21 years, with the last seven as a Detective. Most of her career was spent on patrol on the midnight shift, including some time in the street crimes unit. Now, she is part of the Special Victims Unit, where she investigates cases of child abuse and sexual abuse. Detective Carrie says she finds her current assignment both challenging and deeply meaningful.

0:56.2	I know these cases are by far the most difficult to listen to.
1:04.3	The hard truth is they are also a huge part of law enforcement's day to day. So even as we often steer potential guests away from giving us cases like this, we feel it would be disingenuous
1:10.3	of us
1:10.9	to exclude them all together,
1:12.8	because these cases are an important part
1:15.7	of how our guests strive to keep their communities safe.
1:20.4	I will say, as difficult as it is for us
1:23.3	to listen to the details of these crimes,
