It's the fall of 2007 and Nadia Kajouji has no way of knowing she is about to fall into the clutches of an online predator. She is in her first year at Ottawa's Carleton University and succumbs to a crippling depression that sparks suicidal impulses nurtured and fed by an online counselor named Cami D. Nadia doesn't know it, but Cami D is alleged to be a web predator, a "cyberpath." The Fifth Estate takes an in-depth look at the upcoming trial and the complex legal questions it will address. Can a suicide voyeur be convicted for their online role in another's death? How do you regulate or legislate against such horrifying web-based acts? What are the implications for jurisdiction when borders are crossed with the click of a cursor?
