About this listen

Paul Wilson was once one of Australia's most respected criminologists; a professor, author of 50 books, and even a recipient of the Order of Australia.

Behind the accolades was a disturbing truth.

In the 1970's Paul committed brazen sexual abuse against a minor, crimes that only came to light decades later.

In this episode of Exhuming the Truth, we uncover how a man who studied crime became a criminal himself, and we ask what his downfall reveals about power, trust and accountability.
