It's been 25 years since the tabling in Federal Parliament of the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths In Custody, and there are still repeated cases of Aboriginal deaths in custody, where around one third of all people incarcerated in Australia are Aboriginal. One of the most recent cases is that of Ms Dhu, who died while in custody in Western Australia under appalling circumstances. This is just one case of many that have occurred over many years.
