Carly Ryan

Carly Ryan was a sweet and fun loving 15 year old living in Stirling, Southern Australia. She loved to spend time online, especially chatting with her special friend, 18 year old Brandon Kane. Or so she thought. It turned out that Brandon was not everything he said he was and sadly, Carly fell victim to a deceitful online predator named Gary Newman. This case is tragic and reminds us of the dangers of catfishing, online grooming, and cyber predatory behavior. Join us in the closet this week for the case of Carly Ryan.
