The Facts
The perpetrator pleaded guilty to 307 charges, including 28 counts of rape, 190 counts of indecent treatment, and 67 counts of making child exploitation material, with victims primarily being girls aged between one and seven years old.
Australian Federal Police discovered thousands of photographs and videos on the dark web, where Griffith, using the alias 'Zimble,' shared abuse content and advised others on offending against children.
The Spin
The childcare system failed to prevent nearly two decades of abuse despite multiple warning signs and reports. Centers ignored red flags, failed to properly supervise staff, and created a false sense of security for parents, necessitating a thorough investigation of systemic failures.
