The Wire

NSW Police fear that reports of indigenous child paedophilia within the trucking industry are not isolated incidents. Communities in northern NSW of Boggabilla and Moree say they’ve known for a while about Aboriginal girls – some as young as eight – trading roadside sex for cash or drugs. Today the NSW police force announced a five thousand dollar cash reward for information leading to convictions. The scheme is a joint initiative between the government and the NSW Aboriginal Land Council who say they’re concerned by the failure to find the offenders.
