00:05The End
00:05Did Jack buy you a drink?
00:06Yeah. He was showing me photos of his little girl on his phone.
00:11Detective Pollard, you've got a visitor.
00:14I'm sorry that I have to leave you here, but I'm gonna have to do it all nighter.
00:18What are you doing here? I'm doing a gig next week.
00:20I'll put your name on the door. Please, come along.
00:23I want you to leave.
00:25I'm not leaving. Just go! Go! Go!
00:28I'm gonna give them a DNA sample in the morning.
00:31And the cops will stitch you up. Guaranteed that I am not gonna let that happen.
00:36I've seen this guy before at Sprout Cafe.
00:39Catch you later, Robin.
00:41He's the only one that matches the description of Edie's.
00:44Number five.
00:46Is his name Jack?
00:48We think that he gave you a false name.
00:50Yeah, that's him.
01:00He's the only one that he has ever got.
01:01Wait a minute.
01:03No and Luke.
01:40I'll get it.
01:46You're Simon Prendergast, hon.
01:48Uh, yeah.
01:51Simon?
01:55Simon Prendergast, I'm Detective Pollard from North Gap Police.
01:59We're placing you under arrest for the alleged assault of Edie Kelly
02:02the night of the 11th of October.
02:04You do not have to say or do anything, but what you do say and do
02:08may be recorded and used as evidence against you.
02:11Do you understand?
02:12Yeah, I understand.
02:13We're going to take you to North Gap Police Station for questioning now.
02:16Simon?
02:17Obviously someone's made a huge mistake.
02:19I'll be back soon.
02:20Tired out of the kitchen.
02:21Don't touch anything.
02:23Um, this is a search warrant.
02:29Do I know you from the cafe?
02:33Yeah.
02:34I'm Ronnie.
02:37Ronnie, is there anything that you want to tell me about Simon?
02:44I mean, if you're afraid of Simon, then now would be the time to say something.
02:48Watch your head.
02:49Yeah, I got it.
02:51Okay, friends.
02:51Bring it in.
02:54I can go up to myself.
02:56You are looking for phones, tablets, computers, laptops.
03:00Well, if anything comes up, it's my number.
03:01Okay, the table.
03:12You just asked.
03:12Right, okay.
03:20Help me.
03:21Less than anything.
03:24Greetings.
03:26The enemy went for the king's palace to kill me then in thea.
03:27Oh.
03:29I need word ten.
03:31Whatever is Julie?
03:39Simon, hey. Sorry, don't get up with a delay.
03:43We'll get started shortly.
03:47Wait.
03:48They're waiting for Detective Pollard.
03:54So you just wait for the lady, do you?
03:58Oh, yeah.
04:19Sorry.
04:25Okay, let's get started.
04:28It is 8.49am, October 19, 2025.
04:32This is an interview being conducted at North Gap Police Station
04:34between myself, Detective Constable Remy Jolicoe and Simon...
04:39Simon Arthur Prennegast.
04:42Detective Sergeant Tig Pollard.
04:44Excellent. Great.
04:45Detective Sergeant.
04:46So does that mean you're above or below this one?
04:50I'm senior.
04:51Oh, it's good to know.
04:54Okay, so Simon, you're aware that you're here being interviewed
04:57in relation to a sexual assault that took place on October 11.
05:01Anything you say or do can be recorded and used as evidence.
05:05Do you understand that?
05:06Yes, I do.
05:07And my understanding is that you've waived all rights
05:09to legal representation, is that correct?
05:11That is correct, because that will not be necessary.
05:14Okay, great.
05:15All right, so Simon, you visited the Royal Arms Hotel on October 11.
05:20Can you begin by telling us what time you arrived?
05:23Sure.
05:24Around 8.30pm, I think.
05:27Okay, so when you arrived at 8.30,
05:29can you tell us from that point on
05:30what you did between the time of 8.30 and when you got home?
05:34Okay.
05:37So, I walked in and it was very busy.
05:41There weren't any seats available,
05:42so I kind of just wandered around for a little bit,
05:45you know, to see if there's anyone else there that I knew.
05:48And that is when I saw the young woman.
05:53She was kind of wedged up in a corner
05:56and it looked like this old guy was giving her a hard time.
05:59Now, I couldn't, you know, really hear
06:01what he was saying through the noise,
06:03but I could tell that she was feeling very uncomfortable.
06:07So when he went to the bar,
06:09I headed over to her to make sure she was okay
06:11and asked her if she wanted me to sit with her,
06:14you know, so he'd leave her alone.
06:17Yeah, so I sat down
06:19and then he seemed to get the message
06:21and he wandered off.
06:24And you went and bought her a drink?
06:26Uh, yeah.
06:29A lime and soda.
06:31Okay, so, um,
06:33so you bought her a lime and soda
06:34and then what happened?
06:35Uh, I sat with her, finished our drinks,
06:38chatted a bit.
06:39She was upset that the young guy
06:41that she'd been with
06:43had just kind of left her there.
06:46I think she said, um,
06:48she had a lift.
06:50Did you offer one?
06:51No.
06:53Why not?
06:54I didn't think it was appropriate.
06:57So, you know,
06:58I finished my drink,
06:59went to the loo,
07:00called it a night
07:01and, uh,
07:02I guess that's about 9.15pm
07:04and then I went home.
07:07That was it.
07:09Did you leave first
07:10or did she leave first?
07:12I think I must have.
07:15Okay, so which way did you leave the bar?
07:17Uh, out the back.
07:20Out the back?
07:20Mm-hmm.
07:22Why is that?
07:24I mean, I didn't want to run into the,
07:26the old bloke that, you know,
07:28had been hassling her
07:28in case he wanted to have a go.
07:30I mean, fair enough.
07:31I mean, you look like
07:32you could probably handle it yourself, Simon.
07:34That's not the point, right?
07:37I don't like aggression.
07:39I don't like violence.
07:42Okay, um,
07:44so you went out the back
07:45Mm-hmm.
07:46and then what,
07:47you walked around the front
07:48to the car park?
07:50Uh, no.
07:51My wheels are out the back.
07:54I would have thought
07:55it was,
07:56it was more convenient
07:56to just park out the front.
07:58Um,
07:59yeah,
07:59it makes sense
08:00but often, you know,
08:01I'll park away off
08:02just to try and
08:03get my steps up.
08:05All right,
08:05so very health conscious.
08:07Okay.
08:08Um,
08:09so you leave the bar
08:10around 9.30?
08:10No,
08:11I said I leave the bar
08:12around 9.15pm.
08:14I'm so sorry you did.
08:16Yeah.
08:16I'm sorry,
08:169.15,
08:17you leave the bar
08:17around 9.15.
08:18Mm-hmm.
08:19And then what?
08:21I went home.
08:24No stops along the way?
08:25No.
08:29All right,
08:30thanks, Simon.
08:31I'm going to pause
08:31the interview there.
08:34All right,
08:34that's it.
08:35No, no,
08:35we're just going to,
08:36we're going to take a short break.
08:37Um,
08:38just hang tight
08:38while you're with you shortly.
08:50Okay,
08:51so he said that he left the bar
08:52at 9.15
08:53and went straight home.
08:54I want you to forget
08:55about the cameras in town
08:56and focus on the three-mile camera
08:57because he would have had
08:58to go past there
08:58to get to his place
08:59and start looking from 9.
09:01Sure.
09:02He's all yours,
09:03by the way.
09:04I'm going to make him wait.
09:08So, Blake,
09:08we're looking for
09:09a black Mercedes G-Wagon
09:10Rego 588-KM
09:13and go 9.
09:14and go 9.
09:57Sorry. Thank you for being so patient.
10:03Sure.
10:05Um, interview is resuming.
10:15Um, you have been so incredibly helpful. Thank you very much. There's just, um, there's
10:22just a couple of things that I'm a little bit confused about and I'm hoping that you
10:25can clarify them for me.
10:26Sure. I'll do my best.
10:27Thank you. Um, Simon, uh, the young woman that you were talking to told us you said your
10:34name was Jack.
10:37Well, she must have misheard me.
10:39I mean, Simon, Jack, they don't sound very similar.
10:45Oh, mm-hmm. Um, maybe she thought that I reminded her of a Jack she once knew. Memory works in
10:54kind of strange ways, does it not?
10:58Sorry.
11:02I detected Jollica's re-entered the room.
11:11What did you talk about with the young woman?
11:14Nothing much. Like I said, she was annoyed that the young man had pissed off and left her
11:20there. I mean, it's all pretty immature stuff if you ask me.
11:24Yeah. How long do you think you were talking to her?
11:27Uh, I don't know, 15 minutes, give or take.
11:30And then you left her alone?
11:34Yeah.
11:35Why?
11:37It wasn't her babysitter.
11:39No, it's just that earlier you'd said that you'd been concerned about her.
11:42Mm. Yeah.
11:44Of course, yeah. I mean, but she was okay. She had told me that, uh, there was a ride coming.
11:50But you didn't offer her a lift.
11:53I already told you that.
11:54Why not?
11:56Oh, come on. I mean, I wouldn't want my daughter to get in the car with someone she just met,
12:00right?
12:02Do you have a daughter?
12:05No.
12:10No.
12:18Edie told us that you showed her a photograph of a young girl and said that it was your daughter.
12:26She must be confused. It was my niece.
12:30That's what you told her?
12:32Yeah.
12:35My niece's daughter, they don't sound very similar either.
12:39It was noisy.
12:42Why'd you show her a picture of your niece?
12:44It just came up somehow.
12:50Do you have any, Simon?
12:59Is it part of a game?
13:05You show a young woman a photograph of a young girl, say that it's your daughter or your niece,
13:12so that she sees you as a family man?
13:15So that she feels a little bit more comfortable around you?
13:19I see what's happening here. You're trying to make up a story about me.
13:23Well, it's a good one, isn't it?
13:31Have you used that one before?
13:35I mean, there's no harm in it. It's just playing with the truth.
13:39Everybody does that.
13:42It's all just, you know, competition, right?
13:48Yeah.
13:51Everybody's just playing a game.
13:54You know?
13:55Most people just don't acknowledge it. You're doing it right now.
13:58You're trying to make me say things to suit your story about me.
14:04I think it's quite different, actually.
14:07You're making up a story versus building a story based on facts.
14:11Because the fact is, Simon, you're the last known person to speak to Edie Kelly,
14:16who was then brutally raped by multiple men after being given a drink,
14:21we believe, was laced with GHB.
14:24You believe?
14:26Yeah, that's pure conjecture.
14:28It's a hypothesis.
14:30Which is why we're getting your version of events,
14:33so that we can match that to verifiable facts.
14:38You know, the quickest way to eliminate yourself from being a suspect
14:43would be just to give us a DNA sample.
14:46I don't think so.
14:48It's not really a choice.
14:53We're going to take another break, and I'm going to go and get the authority of our senior sergeant
14:57to take a sample of your DNA.
14:59Oh, I thought you said you were the top dog, top dog.
15:03Would you like, uh, coffee?
15:06Yeah, oat milk, flat white, thanks.
15:08Okay. Are you hungry? Would you like a muffin?
15:12I don't do sugar.
15:15I don't do sugar.
15:40So what are your thoughts?
15:42You're going to need solid proof that he lied about going straight home for us to hold him.
15:47Okay.
15:52Where are you at, Blake?
15:54I'm up to 10pm. Still nothing.
15:56Alright, keep going. If we can get him home, then we've got a fixed timeframe he's got to account for.
16:00Yep.
16:03I'm going to get the prick his coffee.
16:19Hey, Rod.
16:20Hey.
16:20Hi.
16:22Is Simon still here?
16:23Yeah, he is, but he's in a locked interview room, so he wouldn't know you were.
16:28Um, I should have said something the first time it happened.
16:33Has he hurt you?
16:37Have you ever told anyone?
16:39I had to go to hospital one time to...
16:42Yeah, the nurse did an examination on me.
16:44Mm-hmm.
16:44I didn't ask for it, but she said it was just in case I decided to do something about it.
16:48Yeah.
16:48But you didn't, you didn't take it to the police?
16:49No, I, I couldn't remember what happened.
16:51Okay.
16:52Why don't you come in with me right now and let's, let's do a formal statement.
16:55No, no, I can't. I can't. I just don't know if I told you about it.
16:57It helps. It really does help.
16:58But unless you sign off on the release forms, we cannot use that information.
17:02He's gonna kill me.
17:02If he's like...
17:03We can help you. We can put protections in place.
17:06We, we, we can keep you safe, Ronnie.
17:08I can't. I'm sorry.
17:09Okay, Ronnie, Ronnie, Ronnie.
17:10I, I cannot guarantee that we can keep Simon in here past today.
17:14I, I said everything I needed to...
17:15We can help, we can help you.
17:17I can't. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
17:18Oh, fuck.
17:22Oh.
17:29Oh.
17:30Oh.
17:42Oh.
17:43Um, swab this on the inside of your mouth, um, on both sides of each cheek.
17:47And if I refuse?
17:49Then I will handcuff you and do it forcibly.
18:02Excellent.
18:02Should be enough for a while.
18:05We'll, uh, we'll recommence shortly.
18:09See if I can't track down your coffee for you.
18:12Yeah, that'll be nice.
18:21I'm up to midnight. Still no sign of him.
18:24Okay. So that's three hours unaccounted for.
18:27If you can't tell us where he was, then that's grounds to hold him, right?
18:45Here's your coffee.
18:47Thanks.
18:49For fuck's sake, it's cold.
18:51Okay.
18:54Okay, now you're just wasting my time.
18:57Yeah, I've told you everything I know.
18:59I don't think that that's entirely true.
19:02I'd like to ask you again, Simon, where did you go when you left the pub?
19:05Home. I told you.
19:07Well, that's what doesn't make sense.
19:10There's a camera at the three-mile servo, and you would have had to have passed that to get from
19:16the pub to your place.
19:18We've gone through all of the footage from 9pm right the way through to midnight, and there is absolutely no
19:24sign of you.
19:25So where did you go when you left the pub?
19:33Maybe I didn't go past the servo. Maybe I took a different route.
19:39There isn't any other route, Simon. So where did you go?
19:46Okay, so the problem with your hypothesis is you've made a fairly big assumption that I drove my car to
19:56the pub that night.
19:58Well, that's not a hypothesis. That's actually what you told us.
20:04You said that you parked out the back of the pub.
20:10Yeah, I did.
20:13But my bike, not my car.
20:18I rode to the pub and I rode home, took a local bike track. It doesn't go past the servo.
20:30Now, I have answered all of your questions. Truthfully, honestly, you just didn't ask the right one.
20:42Buy the type back.
20:48I'm pretty sure I'm done here.
20:52And the coffee's pretty shit, so...
21:03Interview's suspended at 2.45.
21:25We have no choice but to release him.
21:27He's a flight risk. He knows that his DNA is going to be a match.
21:30We can't assume that. Plenty of innocent people make a fuss about giving their DNA.
21:34I want to request 24-hour surveillance, at least until we get the results back.
21:38You can request, but our resources are stretched in at the moment.
21:42See, I don't understand what's more important than keeping tabs on a potential rapist.
21:45Potential rapist. That's your answer there.
21:48Until the DNA comes through, you have nothing more on him than you do on Finn Morrison.
21:52Or anyone else, for that matter.
22:14Hello?
22:15Hey, Ronnie. It's Detective Sergeant Pollard.
22:19I'm just calling to let you know that we will be releasing Simon now.
22:24But if anything makes you feel unsafe, we can have somebody come and take you to a refuge.
22:29And I also wanted to remind you that it is not too late if you wanted to sign off on
22:35the sample from your forensic exam.
22:37Then I could charge him and hold him in custody.
22:42Then you'll know what I've done.
22:46Ronnie, it's not easy, I know.
22:49I've got to get ready.
22:51I've got to go.
23:00Well, let's get around.
23:00Have to get me out of the room to show up.
23:05What's up with you?
23:09What's that Finn Morrison's phone?
23:13Yeah.
23:14We're not a lot and the kids called about him to go to look at the photo.
23:17It's super-extracted.
23:18Yeah.
23:19And he's also not allowing Finn to give us a BMA sample.
23:23He's trying to hide something.
23:25Yeah, put him up on the board.
23:26Let's see if we can't find a connection between him and someone in front of you guys.
23:56Oh!
24:20Babe.
24:30Police opened up.
24:33Did it occur to you to close the fucking thing?
24:36Sorry.
24:38What were you doing in here while they were here?
24:41Sitting in a corner being all chatty and friendly and shit?
24:47No.
24:49I just stayed out of their way.
24:56What did they ask you?
24:59Nothing.
25:01Bullshit.
25:02Bullshit!
25:04It was only stuff I didn't have the answers to.
25:08Like what?
25:14The names of your friends.
25:20Anything else?
25:25What time you got home that Saturday?
25:34What time did I get home, Ronnie?
25:39I don't know.
25:41You don't know?
25:42Too fucking right you don't.
25:57Come here.
25:59Come on, Don looks like a scared rabbit.
26:01Hmm?
26:08I was worried for you.
26:16Good girl.
26:29You know what I need?
26:32Hmm.
26:35I need a shower.
26:36I need a shower.
26:39I need a shower.
26:42I need a shower.
26:48You know what,には he's no more and a shower.
26:52Don't have to show up for you.
26:53He's no more and a shower.
26:53You know what's going on?
27:21Hi!
27:22Hi!
27:23I'm so sorry!
27:26It's like what, it's 20 minutes, 20 minutes, that's okay, forgivable.
27:29No worries!
27:30Hello!
27:31Hi!
27:32Oh my God, how are you?
27:33Hello!
27:33Hello!
27:34Hi!
27:34You're welcome back.
27:36You're being great.
27:36Oh, of course, the European Double Cheers!
27:39Oh my God, you're here.
27:42Hooray!
27:43Lovely.
27:45Reminds me of my...
27:46The whole time.
27:46Cheers.
27:48Thank you for this.
27:49Pleasure.
27:50A little idea.
27:51Cheers.
27:52Cheers, girls.
27:53Oh, yes.
27:55I wasn't offering anybody dinner.
27:57No, no, no, I wasn't sure I thought it was dinner.
27:59No, I don't.
28:00No, I don't.
28:00What?
28:01I was asking!
28:03I'm not being critical, but...
28:05Why did you...
28:06I'm not being critical.
28:07Is she going to start a sentence?
28:08I'm not being critical.
28:10However...
28:10Why did you come back?
28:12Here?
28:13She missed the nightlife!
28:14Yeah!
28:15And the fine dining!
28:16I like it.
28:18I like it.
28:20I like it here.
28:21It's changed.
28:22I reckon it's changed a bunch.
28:24Seriously?
28:24It seems different now.
28:25Andy down.
28:26Silver live at the Royal.
28:27I saw the poster.
28:28Tomorrow night.
28:29Yes, we should all go.
28:31Absolutely.
28:31Get drunk on breezes.
28:32Throw up on the car park.
28:34Good time.
28:34No, Nancy.
28:36You've had enough time.
28:36You've had enough time.
28:37No.
28:38Well, how would you feel about that, Tig?
28:41Oh, I'm fine.
28:43I ran into him the other day.
28:44He invited me.
28:45Seriously?
28:46Yeah.
28:47You still see him?
28:47But it's not like you're still in a relationship with him.
28:51I...
28:53Mads.
28:53What?
28:55Give me some of that pooey stuff.
28:57Pooey?
28:58Pooey say.
28:59That's what she said.
29:17Pooey.
29:18Yeah.
29:19I can't.
29:20I can't talk about that with you, Liz.
29:22Oh, okay.
29:22Well, look, we all know that Shayna never thinks the girls do anything wrong.
29:25Oh, don't start, Liz.
29:26It's just chips.
29:28Okay.
29:29Do you believe her?
29:30You know, the girl?
29:31Why wouldn't I?
29:32I just...
29:33Look, I really worry for my boys, you know, because any girl can say anything these days.
29:38She was brutally raped, Liz.
29:40Oh, okay.
29:41Well, maybe in this case.
29:43Liz, why don't you want to believe it happens?
29:47I just...
29:47Look, I remember what it was like when we were that age.
29:50You know, the boys would try stuff on and any one of us could have cried foul.
29:54We didn't, did we?
29:55We just...
29:55We learned how to handle ourselves.
29:58Well, you don't think anyone got raped back then?
30:02Well, yeah.
30:03Yes, of course some of them must have it.
30:04I mean, the one in five women bullshit, like, what?
30:08There's five of us here.
30:09Does that mean the one...
30:09It's too much.
30:10Just change the conversation.
30:12We don't know what to talk about it.
30:13It's not...
30:14Nice.
30:16Fuck me.
30:21Tigg, did you know that we were all jealous of you?
30:24I would have gone there with Andy De Silva.
30:27I wouldn't have.
30:28Fuck.
30:28I wouldn't have.
30:30No, I'm not being critical.
30:32I just...
30:33Tigg, I think you were way more mature than I was.
30:35Bullshit, Liz.
30:36You had his name all over your pencil case.
30:38I did not.
30:39You did.
30:40I snobbed him.
30:41What?
30:42When?
30:43At one of those parties of Olivia's.
30:45At one of those parties.
30:47First time I smoked weed at one of those parties.
30:49Hey, I never knew that.
30:50What?
30:50When was that?
30:53Um...
30:53Well...
30:53Back...
30:54I don't know.
30:55I was 15, 16.
30:57Probably not long before you got together with him.
30:59And I probably didn't tell you because you were so hanging out for your 16 so you could sleep
31:03with him.
31:03See?
31:04That's all I was saying, okay?
31:05It's not always on the guys.
31:08Tig, you were into it.
31:10Yeah.
31:11Thanks.
31:12Oh, God.
31:13What?
31:16What time is it?
31:17I'm getting tired.
31:19Yeah.
31:20Yeah.
31:20Yeah.
31:23Yeah.
31:24I can call you anyway.
31:25Oh, yeah.
31:26Yeah.
31:27I'm walking.
31:31No.
31:32No.
31:32No.
31:33My DNA doesn't prove a thing.
31:36She handled my phone, okay, for a bloody hug, before she left the bar.
31:40No.
31:41End of fucking story, as far as I'm being said.
31:44No.
31:45Mate, I have nothing to do with data.
31:48All right?
31:48And by quite now that any one of you idiots did...
31:51Yeah.
31:53Good.
31:56Then I suggest you do that, then.
32:09Do you want another?
32:11Yeah.
32:11If I do, I'm going to have to sleep on your couch.
32:13That's fine.
32:15I'll make it up for you.
32:17Okay.
32:21Can I ask how the investigation's going?
32:25Um, we questioned the guy that Edie met at the bar, who said his name was Jack, today.
32:34Oh, let me guess, not his real name.
32:37No.
32:38All right.
32:39Yeah.
32:39Yeah.
32:41Off the record, it's not the only assault it is linked to.
32:45Apparently you did an exam on his partner.
32:50But she didn't let it go through to the police.
32:52Oh.
32:53Well, that narrows it down to about half the women I ever see, so...
33:02Dig all that stuff about Andy and...
33:05I know, it's, you know, I don't understand why people keep revisiting it.
33:09Olivia invited him to stay for dinner the other night and she was just joking about it
33:14and wouldn't let it go.
33:15And I saw Andy and he was all weird and kept asking, you know, if we were okay.
33:20And it's like he's worried I'm about to accuse him of something.
33:25Yeah.
33:26He should be worried.
33:29He was a grown man who groomed you, Tig.
33:38Why the fuck would you say that?
33:40I can just see the way that this is impacting your life.
33:43I'm really uncomfortable with this.
33:44I don't think you have a right to...
33:45No.
33:47Okay.
33:48I'm trying to go out of the bus.
33:51No.
33:54No.
34:00No.
34:01No.
34:09No...
34:10No...
34:10No.
34:12No.
34:16No.
37:01Hey.
37:03Hey.
37:05What are you doing?
37:07Hey!
37:32Hey!
37:46Hey!
37:47Hey!
37:48Hey!
37:49Hey!
37:50Hey!
37:50Hey!
37:51Hey!
37:51Hey!
37:52Hey!
37:53Hey!
37:54Hey!
37:55Hey!
37:56Hey!
37:57Hey!
37:57Hey!
37:58Hey!
37:59Hey!
38:00Hey!
38:21Hello?
38:22Detective Pollard?
38:23It's Ronnie Cavalieri.
38:25Hey, are you okay?
38:26Um, I saw him burning something.
38:28I took his car and I'm heading onto Forest Road.
38:30Okay, Ronnie, I need you to stay on the line.
38:33Don't stop for anyone.
38:34I'm going to meet you on the road.
38:35Do you understand?
38:36Okay, thank you.
39:06You did so great.
39:07You did so great.
39:25Hi.
39:25Hi.
39:27Sheena, this is Ronnie.
39:28Hi.
39:29Hi.
39:29Oh, you probably don't remember me.
39:31Oh, of course I do, sweetheart.
39:34You're here to sign some papers?
39:36Yeah.
39:37Yeah.
39:38Okay.
39:39Do you want to just, um, we'll pop into this room?
39:43Okay.
39:47Hey, Sheena, she's going to need emergency accommodation.
39:49Yeah, I'll get on to the refuge.
39:51Okay.
39:58All right, thank you.
39:59Good on you for coming in, Ronnie.
40:01Yeah.
40:03Yeah.
40:05Yeah.
40:06Yeah.
40:10Yeah.
40:17Simon Prendergast's partner has signed off on having her forensic samples sent to the lab.
40:21He raped her too?
40:22Yes, multiple times.
40:25So I'm pushing the lab for Simon's DNA, which should give us a potential match to Edie, but
40:29I want him under surveillance.
40:31I'll see what I can do.
40:34I found something on Q Prime over in South Shore that's probably worth taking a look at.
40:39Yeah.
40:40Jade Dawson, 25, out at a nightclub, gets separated from her friends.
40:43This guy starts coming on to her, he gets pushy, and two other guys step in and tell him
40:48to piss off.
40:49Next thing she knows, she's waking up naked on a beach, no idea how she got there.
40:55Forensic exam showed DNA and semen from three men, and a high dose of GHB.
41:01I knew it.
41:03I'll get her contacts.
41:05Okay.
41:08That's three women, not including Ronnie.
41:46Hey.
41:50Sorry, I just, I just needed something to do.
41:53It's okay.
41:54It's kind of therapeutic, huh?
41:56Sure.
42:11Um, why did you let me go to trial?
42:18Excuse me?
42:20Why did you let me go to trial?
42:30Maya, that was your decision, not mine.
42:34Yeah, but you knew the stats.
42:39You knew how difficult it was to get a conviction when it was a question of consent.
42:45And so did you.
42:51And of course we thought you had a strong case.
42:54We knew that you were incredibly articulate, and you were presentable, you weren't problematic.
42:59I wasn't a slut, you mean?
43:05Yes.
43:09Okay, well the jury didn't think so.
43:12The jury thought that I wanted to have sex up against a dumpster.
43:16I know, but that was also a risk you were willing to take.
43:20So, well, I put this on myself.
43:24No, I didn't say that.
43:29But, at some point you, you have to accept the jury's decision.
43:34That, that is the system.
43:38And if they say that he didn't rape you, you can't go around saying that he did.
43:47Are you truly surprised that he's suing you?
43:53Yeah.
43:54I am.
44:03At some point, you know, you have to choose what's best for you.
44:11And, and maybe that is self-preservation.
44:21Yeah, I just, I didn't think that you were going to say that.
44:53Are you still taking the medication for your ulcers?
44:56Yep.
45:02Oh, I know, love.
45:04You've been so patient.
45:05I know, I might just get you to angle towards me.
45:17I'm sorry.
45:25Ah!
45:32Love, are you alright?
45:33Don't you touch me!
45:42I know, I know.
45:45Oh.
46:07Fuckin' animals!
46:13Sorry, I'm sorry.
46:15No, it's okay.
46:30You do love?
46:32It's okay.
46:35I'll just wait here for you.
47:10I'll just wait here for you.
47:10I'll just wait here for you.
47:15Let's go.
47:19Hey.
47:22Wanna get in?
47:34Hey.
47:36Hey.
47:48Hey.
47:51Hey.
47:52Hey, my daughter's inside.
47:53It's okay.
47:54Hey, hey.
47:57Hey, I'm not having sex in my driveway.
47:59It's just a bit of fun.
48:03Seriously.
48:06Thanks, but no thanks.
49:05Angie! Angie! Angie! Angie! Angie!
53:50We're right back.
