Update on well connected child predator

Update on well connected child predator

In episode #342 of Australian True Crime, we met a man named Glen Fisher, who told us about the abuse he suffered in a so-called youth refuge in 1980s Kings Cross.

The place in question was called the "Homeless Children's Association Refuge", and it was run by one Simon Davies.

In 2022, Simon Davies was convicted of historical child sex offences against two boys in 1980s. One of those boys was Glen Fisher.

After that episode was published, we were contacted by a woman named Marie, who said she had more information about that story which she would like to share.

Marie's life has been an odyssey, to say the least. As you'll hear though, she comes from a very different background to the boys who ended up at the Homeless Children's Association Refuge.

We contacted the Australian Privacy Foundation (founded by Simon Davies) for comment, and you can see our correspondence with them on our Facebook page.
