1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:04,520 Speaker 1: International correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance Peace of Mind 2 00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 1: for New Zealand Business. Murray old Illy corresponding, Hello, No, 3 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: hello Heather, good afternoon to you. 4 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:11,480 Speaker 2: Should we ban men? 5 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 1: Well, it's a very very vigorous debate over here, as 6 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,919 Speaker 1: you might expect. All the data shows ninety seven percent 7 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:25,440 Speaker 1: of child sex offenders ninety seven percent are men. So 8 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 1: it's not about discrimination. According to those who are supporting 9 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: this idea that men basically should not work in childcare centers, 10 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 1: ninety seven percent of those accused of sexual offenses against 11 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,880 Speaker 1: little kids are men. And here's the thing. I mean 12 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:44,600 Speaker 1: that there's allegations this afternoon that this alleged child sex 13 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: offender worked at more than twenty centers across Melbourne. That 14 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 1: and those centers have been identified so far. This is 15 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: the is the twenty four year old, I think a 16 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: twenty six year old a bigger pardon the twenty six 17 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 1: year old who's accused of sexually assaulting children at one 18 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: center aged five months to two years old. The accused 19 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: those worked at at least twenty centers. Here's the thing. 20 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 1: Twelve hundred children, The parents of twelve hundred kiddies have 21 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: been told to go out and get their kids tested 22 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: for your sitting down gonorrhea and chlamydia. So you know, 23 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: it doesn't get much more serious than this. So there's 24 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 1: very vigorous debate about men and being involved. And as 25 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: you say, there's a second fellow now, and apparently the 26 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:35,320 Speaker 1: alleged child sex offender in the childcare setting only came 27 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: to light when police busted the second guy and accused 28 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: him of raping a young man fourteen years old, So 29 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: a child, I should say. So it's dreadfully, dreadfully murky 30 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: and horrible, and I mean people are freaking out, as 31 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: you might expect in Melbourne. And so there's very vigorous 32 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 1: debate about men, about how many centers, and the thing 33 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: goes on and on and on. 34 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 2: Mus Although the proportion of sex offenders who are mean, 35 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 2: you know, it's a high proportion. What proportion of men 36 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 2: do you think are sex offenders? 37 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: Well, I have no idea. 38 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 2: That's probably also a relevant stat right, I mean, just 39 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 2: because these two guys are creeps doesn't mean all men 40 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 2: are creeps. 41 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: Now, that's true, but you know, I mean, you're limited 42 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: in terms of being able to sexually abuse children if 43 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: you're working for price waterhouse. You know what I mean, 44 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: if you're in the army, but if you were, if 45 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: you are one of these people who wants to offend 46 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: against kids and you're in a childcare setting, it just 47 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: makes it so much more easy, doesn't it. And that's 48 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,079 Speaker 1: the allegation. I mean, that's the and that's the argument 49 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: getting propagated over here today. 50 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 2: Listen, did Quantus lose your information? Did people nicke it? 51 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: Well? I don't know. They've not contacted me, and I 52 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 1: am a Quantus frequent flyer, but you know, all of 53 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: Quantus are frequent flyers, and I've not been contacted. But 54 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: those of us who have and those of us who haven't, 55 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: everyone who flies quant has been warned look out for 56 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: scammer teams next few days. Six million people caught up 57 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: in this massive data breach. You've got cyber criminals who 58 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: belted Quantus on Monday. I'm not sure what a third 59 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: party customer servicing platform is, but that's apparently what the 60 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: crooks use to gain access to things like customers names, 61 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: email addresses, phone numbers, birth dates, frequent flyer numbers. Quantuses listen, 62 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: no credit card details, no financial information, so no pens, 63 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: no logins, but of course what other authorities are saying, 64 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: independent of the airline, all the information they've got can 65 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: be used to create fake IDs in your name, in 66 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: my name, in my brother's name, or your cousin's name. 67 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: So you don't need over here. It's one hundred points 68 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: and you can create a fake identity and you've got 69 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: a holl of it, a whole bunch of points. When 70 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: you've you know, you stack up all of the quantus 71 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: ID stuff. Mas. 72 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 2: Why the fifteen year old boys shooting up houses in. 73 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: Sydney because they think a thousand dollars is a lot 74 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: of money? 75 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 2: Is thatpt what they're getting paid? 76 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: Well, that was one thing I heard on the air 77 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: this morning. As little as a thousand dollars, they've given 78 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: the gun, an address, a stolen car they I mean, 79 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: a lot of these kids will be so small they 80 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: couldn't see that at the boody steering wheel, and here 81 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: they are. They're given an address and a handgun. In 82 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: one case, allegedly, back in March, a fifteen year old 83 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,919 Speaker 1: kid is accused of shooting up a home in Maryland's 84 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: and Sydney's West twenty eight bullets fired from a semi 85 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: automatic rifle at the same in Maryland's a woman and 86 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: four kiddies inside. One of the kids missed by millimeters 87 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 1: a bullet in his head the wrong address. For God's sake, 88 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: these kids can't even the boody a text message. And 89 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: then there's a second case and the you know, the 90 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: allegation is this fifteen year old also pulled the trigger 91 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: here with a second boy in April. In the second case, 92 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: they police are saying that the young woman was known 93 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: to them through associations the organized crime. But here's the thing. 94 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 1: It's called air tasking assassinations. I can get someone to 95 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: come to my house and do a tiling job or 96 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: a paint job or whatever it might be. These crims 97 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 1: dialing up would be assassin's as young as fifteen with 98 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 1: the promise of a thousand bucks. Imagine that. Yeah, that's 99 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: just crazy, isn't it. Please you're saying, Plinja're saying, this 100 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: is not a video game, boys, it is not a 101 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: video This is real life at debt. Yeah, and if 102 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 1: you want to do this stuff, you'll be in jail 103 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: for a hell of a long time. Yep. 104 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 2: Far too young to even understand it. Must appreciate it. 105 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 2: Murray Old's Australia correspondent. Oh, by the way, just got 106 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: a text from somebody. The crowds in Wellington who went 107 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 2: to see the Blue Bridge, which included the sun, were 108 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 2: drawn by free coffee and chocolate. Hey, now we get 109 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 2: to the truth of it. You don't care that much 110 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 2: about a boat ship ship, as somebody said on the 111 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 2: texts ship, but you do care about the free coffee 112 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 2: and the chocolate. Now listen on these men. I'll be 113 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 2: honest with you because I'm a parent of the age. 114 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 2: You know, I'm a parent with kids of the age. 115 00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 2: A go to ECE and I am happy that every 116 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 2: single teacher at the KINDI is a woman. I am 117 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 2: happy about that because I like, I think, well, you know, 118 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 2: women feel safer to me than men do. However, can 119 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 2: I just make this point, and I think it is 120 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 2: an important point. Absolutely, most creeps are men, but not 121 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 2: all all men are creeps by any stretch of the imagination. Right, 122 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 2: The number of creeps, the number of men who are 123 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 2: creeps are tiny, right, And it's unfortunately all men suffer 124 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 2: because of these creeps. Also, while men may oppose a 125 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 2: sexual threat, women pose threats to children too. Right, that 126 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 2: go and google it. If you are made of sturdy 127 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 2: enough stuff. I can't google that stuff, so I get 128 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 2: too upset about it. But there are like countless examples 129 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 2: of women in childcare settings who neglect children, hurt children, 130 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 2: hit children, do all kinds of stuff, weird stuff to children. 131 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: They just really abuse them in a hideous to I mean, 132 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 2: just look at the nuns. Do we need to go 133 00:06:58,160 --> 00:06:58,679 Speaker 2: any further? 134 00:06:59,080 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: Right? 135 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 2: So you cannot actually, just as a rule, trust one 136 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 2: sex over the other. Both genders can be hideous to kids. 137 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 2: What you need is good vetting, and clearly that is 138 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: what's gone wrong in Victoria. 139 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: For more from Heather Duplessy Allen Drive, listen live to 140 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: news talks.
