Episode description

Trinity was only 14 years old when she stumbled into the chat room where she would be groomed and abused for three years by online extremists. The group, known as 764, convinces children to commit unimaginable harms to themselves and others, like self harm. Ioanna Roumeliotis tells Mark Kelley about The Fifth Estate’s investigation into the group one investigator describes as “absolutely evil,” and Trinity’s mother explains why she feels the RCMP didn’t do enough to help her daughter.
