Debbie is firmly at the heart of this community and having crossed paths with many of the team at Cyacomb, we are proud to have her as our first guest.  

Debbie spent 30 years at the Georgia Bureau of Investigation as a special agent in charge of GBI’s child exploitation and computer crimes unit. She's built a wealth of practical experience and is a passionate and effective advocate for our mission through work for Raven and others. In this episode, Ian and Debbie discuss the community of those fighting crimes against children, what has changed over the years, the biggest challenges faced by law enforcement, the future of this crime type, technological advances and more. Tune in to hear Debbie's insights, stories and experiences through her work within law enforcement, with Raven and others. 

"The biggest stressor in many offices is the fact that investigators and examiners have information sitting in their computer that would help rescue a child and they know that they'll never get to them. That is often devastating to them."
