Audio Podcast Episode: The Crime Agents.

  • An at-risk teenager was sexually assaulted by care workers at a children’s home where she had been sent by her local council
  • The home was not registered with Ofsted, which is illegal, and staffed by men with convictions for multiple violence crimes
  • The girl is among the hundreds of vulnerable children sent to unregistered homes across England every year

    This is a completely different and bigger problem than the culprits being ex army. For starters, they’re also ex-convicts, which i think is a more accurate indicator of being a child abuser. But secondly, there’s a fucking child rape industry - a “shadpw care system,” as the article puts it - and the article just briefly mentions thst like “yeah that’s just something thst happens in a socoety like ours, can’t be helped”

    Maybe the headline should be “Child rapists control the entire framework for looking after vulnerable children”
