********WARNING: This case contains child victims of sexual abuse********
As a student Christian missionary, Richard quickly figured out that he would be whole heartedly trusted with the children. After getting away with his first crime against a child in Cambodia, he decided foreign, poverty stricken communities were easy targets. He then earned his certificate to teach English as a second language and moved through East Asia ultimately settling in Malaysia. Under the premise that he was teaching English and a professional travel photographer he took advantage of the villagers who had accepted him.
Through a rather complicated investigation, Richard was finally caught after 9 years of abusing what is believed to be hundreds of children. Once imprisoned, he found a fate far worse than most of us could imagine.
Keep your "vom bucket" close by as Elysia tells this incredibly disturbing story about Britain's worst Pedophile and the final encounter he had with sex offender, Paul Fitzgerald. Meanwhile, Savannah attempts to delay the story with more palatable conversation, some of which we've saved for you at the end so be sure to listen past the credits!
