Domestic Disturbance
Judi Wells Henderson talks to reporter Hadyn Jones about how she was terrorised in her home for over a year by a man she hardly knew. Richard Newport is currently serving a two-year prison sentence after being found guilty on six charges of burglary. But what he put Judi through was far worse than that. She was subjected to Newport breaking into her home, stealing underwear, jewellery and personal property and stalking her. Judy used her own skills to bring this man to justice.

Safe Sex on the Streets?
Reports suggest there's been a 40 per cent leap in the number of sex workers, along with a sharp rise in those working the streets, which is concerning critics of the law decriminalising prostitution. It also comes after the release of a new report  commissioned by the Ministry of Justice, into the nature and extent of the sex industry in New Zealand and as police in Christchurch investigate the suspected homicide of a street worker. Susan Wood talks to Catherine Healey of the Prostitutes Collective and Debbie Baker, whose organisation Street Reach works trying to get streetworkers out of prostitution.

Moving On from Makarora
Dave Osmers bought a spot of land in Makarora, 65 kilometres north of Wanaka in the South Island, for 340 pounds. Nearly 50 years on he's selling that spot, which he's built up to a lucrative tourist destination, for millions of dollars. He spoke to reporter Tsehai Tiffin about how he fell in love with the region nearly half a decade ago, and why he's finally decided to move on.
