Child abuse inquiry was meant to move the dial. Three years on, nothing has changed
"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"I knew the pain and trauma that it would bring up in me. Mr Specterman, 59, had grown up in the care of Lambeth, the council which became a core case study in the Independent Inquiry (IICSA). Findings would later detail the council's institutional failings as it retained in its employment adults who posed a risk to children and failed to investigate its employees when they were suspected of child sexual abuse."
The Independent covers topics from reproductive rights to climate change and Big Tech and seeks donations to fund reporters on the ground. The outlet investigates financials like Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC, produces documentaries such as 'The A Word', and rejects paywalls to make journalism available to all. Russell Specterman reacted emotionally to news of an independent inquiry into child sexual abuse, recalling pain and trauma from his time in Lambeth care. The Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) ran seven years, involved over 7,000 survivors, cost £186.6 million, saw three chair resignations, and concluded with Professor Alexis Jay leading from August 2016.
