High-powered lawyers are gearing up for a class action lawsuit that will pit a billion-dollar pharmaceutical company against a group of angry South African women. They say the multinational firm has knowingly manufactured and distributed defective mesh devices, inserted trans-vaginally to alleviate various conditions. The devices, itโ€™s argued, disintegrate over time, causing debilitating pain. And theyโ€™re not alone... Women around the world are taking similar steps against the company, claiming it was aware of the defects and simply did nothing. Itโ€™s a classic David versus Goliath story, but this time David is armed with more than a slingshot.

At just two years old, Chevonne Rusch had endured a difficult upbringing. Throughout her short life, the little girl and her siblings were violently abused and neglected. Friends and neighbours repeatedly reported the abuse to the police and to authorities but no one acted. Then she was brutally murdered. Itโ€™s a tragic story, but our investigation shows that Chevonneโ€™s death couldโ€™ve been prevented had authorities taken action. Instead, their inaction coincided with an escalation in the abuse and, in the end, a tragic loss of life. Carte Blanche investigates how the state, as custodians of vulnerable children, continues to fail them. Find more exclusive content on Carte Blanche: The Podcast: https://linktr.ee/carteblanchetv
