The man was found unresponsive in his cell at the Wooroloo jail, about an hour east of Perth, on Saturday.
“He’s a young man, this was his first stint in an adult prison. He should have been supported, face-to-face mental health support,” the National Suicide Prevention and Trauma Recovery Project’s Megan Krakouer told SBS News. Acacia Prison is owned by the Department of Justice which outsources management of the prison to Serco.
Not committing crime usually helps not dying in goal.
I bet 100% of the prison staff are Anglo Celtics, whilst 90% of those incarcerated are Australian Aboriginals. Are we surprised at the deaths?
How did they die
That’s not good ....!
What sort of incident ?
Why do we have to report on colour of skin And if we have to why are we not reporting white man dies in custody It happens we just don’t report it
The family are saying it’s the governments fault , no it’s not it’s the family’s fault that he was in there.
Deepest sympathy to his family and I hope they get the support they need at this most difficult of times.
My Dad told me to be good and obey the law because I wouldn't like prison. Guess he was right. A pity more dads don't tell their kids that.
ahh well shit happens..
