In the second part of this special two-part deep dive, we continue to learn about the investigation that exposed a global online rape academy. 

It wasn’t hiding on the dark web either, but in plain sight on forums and websites accessible by anyone with an internet connection. 

So far, we’ve heard from CNN’s Kara Fox about the early days of her team’s probe, and in this episode, we learn how they tracked one of these abusers to his hometown in Poland – and what happened next. 

You can read Kara and her team’s investigation piece here.
