Beyond Today

Why is revenge porn still spreading?


Listen Later

A woman who changed her name to escape revenge porn has once again become a victim after finding images of herself on a website containing folders full of explicit images of women “from every city in the UK”. Some of the folders give away full names and locations of the women, but most of them do not even know that the website exists. We hear about Mikala Monsoon who waived her right to anonymity as a victim of crime because she wants the crime taken more seriously. BBC Scotland news reporter Connor Gillies tells us how the police have responded and why revenge porn is so difficult to stop.

Producer: Duncan Barber.
Mixed by Nicolas Raufast.
Editor: John Shields.
