He was a senior cop. A coach. A mentor. A familiar face in Tasmania. But when officers arrived at Paul Reynolds’ door with a search warrant, the truth began to crack open exposing decades of grooming, suspicion, and warnings buried deep inside the system meant to stop him. Badge of Betrayal peels back the layers of a case Tasmania Police quietly walked away from after Reynolds’ sudden death. What emerges is a disturbing pattern: young boys targeted through sport, car meets, and friendship; colleagues who raised concerns and were shut down; and a network of silence that stretched far beyond one man. A current serving high ranking police officer comes forward to tell us everything he knows, a friend who was groomed by Reynolds talks, we speak with victim survivors, whistleblowers and uncover emails and files notes that leave breadcrumbs that ask more questions. From the creators of Our Little Edey, this is a forensic investigation into one of Tasmania’s most unsettling police scandals and the uncomfortable question at its core: If the badge is supposed to protect us… what happens when it protects the predator instead Episode 1 drops Monday 24th November, with weekly episodes or you can subscribe for advanced and add free episodes on Apple Podcasts .See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Four Minutes in the Park
We dig into the moment everything turns: a de-identified teen says he drove through the park for “around four minutes” and saw what he thought was someone sleeping on the ground. The coroner’s finding is stark—Kane died when a vehicle accidentally drove over him—yet despite CCTV identifying two cars that night, both were later excluded when their wheel span and tyre impressions didn’t match the marks near where Kane was found. Police seized cars and interviewed witnesses, but the darkness in the park made seeing anything—let alone a body—exceptionally hard. For Kane’s family, one question still haunts everything: if it was an accident, why didn’t the driver stop?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
