Hi. I'm Alison Sandy, executive producer of podcasts The Lady
Vanishes and Shot in the Dark. As our listeners know,
our investigations delve deep into allegations of corruption and misconduct
among the people we entrust to seek justice for victims
of crime. Much of the time, culprits cover it up

or assigned blame elsewhere. A new podcast, The Man Behind
the Rose, looks at what happens when the person in power,
a former government minister, is found guilty and ultimately jailed
for corruption.
Speaker 2 (00:43):

political power play? Or was he let off lightly? Tune
in to the new podcast The Behind the Rose, available
now wherever you listen to your podcasts.
