On the 18th August 1992, Australian schoolgirl Ebony Simpson came home and told her mother that students had received a talk during a school assembly about stranger danger. Ebony's mother recalls "I said to her, if anything ever comes up in your life, if anything ever happens, come home any tell me. Then I read her a story and she went to bed. And the next day, when she went to school, she didn't come home."
