HARDtalk - Sara Payne and Shy Keenan, Campaigners Against Child Sex Abuse

Logo for HARDtalk - Sara Payne and Shy Keenan, Campaigners Against Child Sex Abuse

Stephen Sackur talks to Sara Payne and Shy Keenan, women brought together by horrifying personal experience, who campaign against child sex abuse and for better child protection. Shy Keenan suffered years of sexual abuse by her stepfather, and Sara Payne's daughter Sarah was murdered by a violent paedophile. Sex crimes perpetrated against children ruin lives and spread fear and anger across society. How far can - and should - society go in its efforts to safeguard children from predatory adults?
