The Trespass

About the Episode

Just who are these perpetrators who commit this heinous crime against children, and why? ​

This episode opens a little differently: from the point of view of an overseas customer. If we want to combat this crime, we need to understand something about those who commit it.​

We rejoin Ruby as she attempts for the first time to escape the online sex trafficking den.​

Ruby reaches an all-time low and turns to her last resource: prayer. ​

Hope is on the horizon. Although Ruby has no way of knowing it, a team of rescuers is busy preparing the last steps to come for her and the other girls.​

You won’t want to miss what happens next.

Issues this episode explores:
- Who are these overseas consumers of OSEC? Is there one ‘type’ of perpetrator? (Hint: the answer may shock you.)
- Is there any hope of change or rehabilitation for those who commit the crime?
