Australia is in the middle of a difficult conversation about violence. From youth crime to knife attacks and domestic violence, politicians, police and communities are all searching for answers. So what if one country has already been through this, and found a way to dramatically reduce violent crime? Karyn McCluskey helped lead that transformation. As one of the founders of Scotland's Violence Reduction Unit, she helped change Glasgow from one of Europe's most violent cities into an international case study in violence prevention by treating violence as a public health issue, not just a criminal justice problem. Today, Karyn joins us to explain what worked, what didn't, and what Australia can learn from Scotland's experience. You can learn more about Karyn McCluskey's work here.

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed. Australia is in the middle of a difficult conversation about violence. From youth crime to knife attacks and domestic violence, politicians, police and communities are all searching for answers. So what if one country has already been through this, and found a way to dramatically reduce violent crime? Karyn McCluskey helped lead that transformation. As one of the founders of Scotland's Violence Reduction Unit, she helped change Glasgow from one of Europe's most violent cities into an international case study in violence prevention by treating violence as a public health issue, not just a criminal justice problem. Today, Karyn joins us to explain what worked, what didn't, and what Australia can learn from Scotland's experience. You can learn more about Karyn McCluskey's work here.

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed. Ten years ago, 20-year-old Elly Warren was found dead in a coastal village in Mozambique under circumstances that remain deeply contested. In the years since, her father Paul Warren has spent his life savings and travelled across continents in a relentless search for the truth, uncovering alleged failures by authorities along the way. He’s written a book about it, called Hunting Elly’s Killer, and he joins us to share the story of his ongoing fight for justice.

In 2001, she was convicted of murdering her partner, John Price, in a case so shocking and brutal that it remains one of the most infamous crimes Australia has ever seen. Today, we're unpacking the crime, the trial, and the legal questions surrounding the case with Lauren Cassimatis, Principal Lawyer and Director at Gallant Law.
