Description

It's been six years since Kumanjayi Walker was killed by Constable Zachary Rolfe, and six months since Coroner Elizabeth Armitage found that racism was a factor in Kumanjayi's killing.

In this episode, Melissa Mackay and Stephen Stockwell examine what has changed in the police force since these damning findings, and the lasting effect on the community. Also, we answer your questions and read some of the heartfelt reflections that have poured in.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders are advised a deceased person's name is used in this episode.

The Case Of is the follow-up to the hit podcast Mushroom Case Daily, and all episodes of that show will remain available in the back catalogue of The Case Of.
