Shortcut: My Predator Has Been Released From Prison

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.

Elysha was just seven years old when she was raped by Sterling Bower.

She joins us on this episode of Australian True Crime to give us an insight into what it's been like since Bower has been released.
