Not wanting to get into any debate but ask Police call centre staff how many calls they respond to from Indigenous citizens requiring Police assistance. They seem willing to turn to Police when in need, which amounts to hundreds of calls in a 24 hour period, and are provided that assistance. So perhaps that is what Lia bases her response on, when told Indigenous citizens don’t trust Police.

‘But Ms Finocchiaro dismissed those calls again on Tuesday, stating that she does not understand why Aboriginal Territorians do not trust the NT Police.
“I can’t understand that and I don’t think it’s actually true,”’
~Someone has been reading too many Law of Attraction self-help books it sounds like:
‘”Ask and It Is Given: Learning To Manifest Your Desires” is widely considered the blueprint of modern-day manifestation. As Kaiser says: it’s a “go-to for spiritual teachers” that explains how the law of attraction and manifesting works with simple bite-size chapters and easy-to-understand breakdowns. The book is said to be a collection of channeled messages from a nonphysical entity named Abraham.’
~Desperately trying to will ‘trust of the Police’ into existence (for another group of people!) and ignoring the obvious – not to mention the long history of Aboriginal Deaths In Custody or the brutal history of how this country was colonised or the Stolen Generation or the White Australia Policy – is indefensible in our minds.
And heaps of other people’s minds too it looks like.
The arrogant, condescending attitude of this CLP Government is breathtaking at times.
The more she digs in, the more the attention is focussed, rightly, on what she is trying to hide.
We don’t think LiaR realises how much fuel she is adding to this fire and if she doesn’t then she is not fit to lead a kindergarten class never mind a Government of any description.
We suppose this shouldn’t be a surprise really, as LiaR was front and centre of protecting and not prosecuting lying racist Police officers already.
Speaking of things we can’t understand:
~how you’re still allowed to be a Leader ~how long you’ll be able to hold on to this position ~how you think you can get away with this and redirecting funding away from the NTP racism review ~how you think that people won’t start more non-violent direct action against your Government
Never mind exploring the issues; just take sides. A glorious territory tradition. This is why we are going down the gurgler. There are complex issues at work and nobody in Government comprehends, or even sees the need to. Just keep reinventing a square wheel.
That poor young man had quite the history.

People won’t forget this in a hurry, you’re completely out of your depth LiaR Finocchiaro and the silence of all other CLP MLAs is deafening.
The coroner is a big part of the problem, wasting so much time and money on a matter already settled by the Supreme Court.
What a load of dribble.
