  • Excellent journalism

    Well done on bring this to the public’s attention. I loved how the victims got to tell their story without being lead. It’s true journalism. I love how the story isn’t protected and it’s to the point. Keep doing this fantastic work. We need journalists like you.

    I can’t seem to star rate but it’s definitely 5 from me

  • Excellent production

    Sad story for the individuals concerned but excellently described and explained. The reviews below of describing negative delivery are nonsense. Thoroughly recommend.
