When Morrell Andrews’s attacker was convicted of her sexual assault, she thought her fight was over. But it was just beginning. Because in Canada, where Morrell lives, ‘Publication Bans’ were enshrined in law. These bans meant that no one, including the survivor themselves, is allowed to publicly name the victim of a sexual offense. Effectively, if Morrell talked about her story in the press, or on her own social media - or even if she texted her friends or emailed her therapist about it - she could face a criminal conviction and a fine.  Morrell wasn’t going to stand for that. With the suppo

Why did it take law enforcement so long to pay proper attention to Derek Alldred’s pattern of fraud against women all over the country?  In bonus episode four, Anna takes a deep dive into the investigation that finally brought Derek down, and the shortcomings of the many that came before.  In this four part mini-series, we take a deep dive into our archive of never before heard interviews, to take a closer look at the key themes that underpinned Trust Me Babe.    If you’re affected by any of the themes in this show, our charity partners NO MORE have available resources at https://www.nomor

When Derek Alldred was finally convicted in 2017, it was far from his first run-in with the law.  In fact, more than a decade earlier, he found himself in the crosshairs of one determined California fire investigator, named Tom Oldag, who suspected him of a very different kind of fraud.  In bonus episode three, Anna takes a deep dive into one strand of Derek Alldred’s colourful criminal history.

Confronting your bestie’s terrible boyfriend about his toxic behaviour can be tempting, but is it always the best course of action?

In the years leading up to Derek’s conviction, his victims sometimes came forward to the media about their experiences.  But when they did so, the reaction from the public wasn’t always sympathetic.  In bonus episode one, Anna takes a closer look at the stigma that surrounds romance fraud with journalist Rachel Monroe, who covered Derek’s sentencing for The Atlantic back in 2018.   In this four part mini-series, we take a deep dive into our archive of never before heard interviews, to take a closer look at the key themes that underpinned Trust Me Babe.    If you’re affected by any of the

In 2013, Rosamund Adoo-Kissi-Debrah’s nine-year-old daughter, Ella, died from a catastrophic asthma attack. Her death transformed her mum into a formidable campaigner.

Her mother didn’t want anything to do with her - if she held her, she said, she would strangle her. Lejla was born of sexual violence used as a weapon of war. Her birth mother had been raped, repeatedly, by Serb sol
