ABOUT THIS EPISODE
When the virtual world becomes the next crime scene.
Whistleblower Cayce Savage stepped forward with a warning: predators are moving into the worlds parents don’t yet understand — VR spaces, avatars, and private Discord servers.
In this episode, we break down what she revealed before Congress, how offenders use cross-platform grooming to target kids, and what parents and investigators can do to stop it.
From Meta’s virtual worlds to the backchannels of Discord, this debrief exposes how online exploitation continues to evolve — and what happens when law enforcement, tech companies, and families must face the next digital frontier together.
