Description

Indigenous Deaths in Custody: A National Disgrace - Senator Lidia Thorpe calls the rising number of Indigenous deaths in custody a national disgrace, with new data showing almost one-third of all deaths during 2024-2025 were Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Thorpe, who has personal experience with these tragedies, urges the government to implement the 1991 Royal Commission recommendations and invest in community-led initiatives instead of punitive measures.
