Re: Shocking Number of Indigenous Deaths in Prison
The Scandal Surrounding The Shocking Number of Indigenous Deaths in Prison
There’s no nice way to put it: the shocking number of Aboriginal deaths in custody is a national disgrace.
BBC 6 MAR 2023
It’s inexcusable. Back in 1991 a Royal Commission exposed the brutal truth about this crisis and made 339 recommendations to try to fix the problem.
Sadly though, good intentions have not translated into meaningful action. In the 32 years since the Royal Commission, more than 527 Indigenous Australians have died while locked up.
