There's a politician who is a pedophile and the plot involves some photos of him abusing children, used for blackmail. The photos aren't shown. He also has an "adopted son" who it implies that he is abusing, again nothing shown onscreen but there's one scene where he makes the kid kiss him on the cheek.
