HEADLINES: Trump Extends Ceasefire & Harry Styles Rumoured To Be Engaged

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/39654126-c167-44db-8c5f-b433018138b9/transcript

It starts with a message in a group chat: a man asking for advice on exactly how much sedative to slip into his wife’s tea tonight so he can sexually assault her while she's unconscious.

Following the horrific 2024 trial of Dominique Pelicot in France, a new investigation has revealed that this wasn't an isolated case, but a thriving global ecosystem. From 'sleep' content on major porn sites to private forums where men livestream their drugged partners for a fee, the scale of this internet-enabled abuse is staggering.

We’re joined by CNN Paris Bureau Chief Saskya Vandoorne, who infiltrated these secret 'brotherhoods' to expose how these men operate under the cover of anonymity and why platforms are still failing to stop them.

If you or someone you know needs help it's available. You can contact 1800 RESPECT on 1800 737 732 or Lifeline on 13 11 14.

🗞️ HEADLINES
President Donald Trump has ruled out any further ceasefire extension,  saying he will resume military action if a deal is not struck

The Coalition has launched a negative social media campaign targeting One Nation ahead of the Farrer byelection
