- Series Description
FRONTLINE is investigative journalism that questions, explains and changes our world. Since 1983, FRONTLINE has served as PBS's flagship public affairs series. Hailed upon its television broadcast debut as "the last best hope for broadcast documentaries," FRONTLINE's stature is reaffirmed each week through incisive documentaries covering the scope and complexity of the human experience.
- Program Description
This program investigates the epidemic of sexual assault and examines Washington's desperate solution to the problem - to keep the offenders locked up until they are judged to be no longer a danger. Through interviews with Westley Allan Dodd (arrested for murder of three young boys in 1989,) other sexual offenders and their families, therapists, and treatment specialists, this program looks for answers to the questions: How did these men become this way? How do we stop them? And how will we know when they're safe?
