The second part of episode 2 focuses on historic and modern cases. It is not an easy episode, featuring discussion of abuse and human rights violations, including racism and rape. Please proceed with care.

Note : while many of these topics remain sadly relevant today, we are focusing on historic aspects here and how they influence perceptions of crime then, and how that can feature today, but we do not specifically delve into topics of eg racism today, and so the discussion is predominantly on and around the past. This does not mean that we do not recognise the importance of understanding the impact of these issues today... only that we are discussing a very specific issue here, an issue without which today's problems likely would not exist. Understanding the past can help us work for a better present, as can widely spread allyship.
