About this episode

The episode introduces Virginia Giuffre and her fight against powerful figures involved in sex trafficking.

Virginia Giuffre was fearless in taking down some of the world’s most powerful people. As Jeffrey Epstein’s most prominent victim, she helped expose his crimes and hold his friends to account, including the man formerly known as Prince Andrew. But despite her heroic battle in the most notorious sex trafficking case of the 21st century, few know about one of her toughest fights. It was one she fought privately at home in Australia.
