Description

The report identifies eighteen instances of potential intervention, including three direct police reports. Police Minister Dan Purdie acknowledges mistakes but blames the lack of a reportable conduct scheme. The Child Death Review Boards report notes police failures as early as 2009, with parents reporting concerning behavior. An external review found obvious deficiencies in police handling of the case. The Queensland Police Service vows to review and improve operations based on the reports recommendations.
