    The cases against Andrew and Tristan Tate

    The crimes the Tate brothers are charged with are the foundation of a lucrative business believed to exploit women and young girls.  We talk to a reporter who's dug into a similar investigation. The Tates were arrested in Miami over the weekend after Crown Prosecutors issued 38 new criminal charges. This brings the total number of charges against the pair to 59, and and they include multiple counts of rape and sex trafficking.  The brothers deny the charges against them. Andrew Tate is known for polarizing and misogynistic views. This episode was produced by Mia Venkat and Chris Harland-Dunaway, with audio engineering by Tiffany Vera Castro, and additional reporting from Robbie Griffiths.  It was edited by Justine Kenin.
