Taxpayers Pay, Offenders Profit: The Hidden Cost of Child Abuse | Andrew Carpenter

View descriptionShare
 

In this episode, Adam Shand speaks with Adelaide lawyer Andrew Carpenter, a man described as “the most hated by Australian child sex offenders.” Carpenter has dedicated his career to pursuing justice for survivors of child sexual abuse—specifically, by closing a shocking legal loophole that allows convicted pedophiles to hide their wealth in superannuation, beyond the reach of their victims.

Together, Adam and Andrew unpack how this injustice has persisted despite bipartisan promises to fix it, and why successive governments continue to protect offenders’ financial interests over those of their victims. Carpenter shares chilling examples—from corrupt magistrates to corporate predators—illustrating how the system fails survivors while taxpayers foot the bill.
