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.In 2006, Adelaide teenager Carly Ryan thought she'd met the boy of her dreams on social media by the name of Brandon Kane. Brandon was a character invented by pedophile Garry Francis Newman, who was in his fifties at the time and communicating with literally hundreds of underage girls around the world, posing as a boy their age. Newman enlisted his own teenage son to help him groom the girls and try to persuade them to meet him in person.In February 2007, Newman and his son traveled to Adelaide to meet up with 15 year old Carly. They took her to her favourite beach where they raped and murdered her. Carly's mother, Sonya Ryan has since led efforts for over a decade in Australia to make her home country one of the toughest on online crime and harms and now an international leader in crime prevention.Sonya joins us on Australian True Crime to talk about what has become her life's work, The Carly Ryan Foundation.Click here to visit The Carly Ryan Foundation website.You can also report online abuse at:https://www.esafety.gov.au/https://www.accce.gov.au/Australian True Crime LIVE is coming to Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne this July!

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. Captain Moonlite was a very different character compared to other famous Australian Bushrangers.Despite the fantastic nickname there's been conspicuously little information available about him. That was until journalist and author, Garry Linnell started looking into the story. The result is a great book that uncovers some surprising aspects of Moonlite story. Aspects some say are the reason he hasn't been eulogised like his contemporaries.
