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 child sexual assault.

Listener discretion is advised.

You know, sometimes I'm down the shops and then I just sort of catch,

you know, the call in my eye, this young woman in a wheelchair being pushed along and

and it's like Katie, you know, it's just, you know, hurts every time. Everything about it hurts everything, all of it.

You know, it's just heartbreaking. It's heartbreaking all the time. You may remember a couple of episodes back when we told you that journalists

Nina Fennel and Cheryl Moody had discovered a loophole in Victorian legislation

that meant that victims of sexual assault who identified themselves in public

had been breaking the law since February 2020.

The government claimed it was a mistake and it would be quickly rectified.

Well hold on to your hats because if the changes the Victorian government plans to make to those laws get through Parliament this week,

every news article, podcast and social media post ever published about Jill Mar,

Uredice Dixon, I am Asawi, and any other victim of sexual homicide

will need to be taken down.
