A police officer supervising Aboriginal woman Tanya Day while in custody has agreed a check on her just seconds before she fell and hit her head was "completely inadequate".
At an inquest into her death, custody supervisor Sergeant Edwina Neale was today shown CCTV footage of Ms Day stumbling in the cell before repeatedly falling between 4.22pm and 4.45pm. Five minutes after the falls, footage showed leading senior constables Danny Wolters and Wayne Cairnes checking on Ms Day through a cell window for just a few seconds before walking away.
Did your extensive education teach you that did it?
As sad as this is please use appropriate language to report. She wasn’t bundled into the cell from what I c in the video, likewise didn’t die in custody but 17 days later in hospital. Don’t try and sensationalise this to evoke reactions
Aboriginal deaths in custody would end, if they just stopped committing crimes.
