A shocking record on Indigenous incarceration
A shocking record on Indigenous incarceration - Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are 13 times more likely to be imprisoned than non-Indigenous people. Arrente man Des Rogers’s story is an all-too-common one. Imprisoned at the age of fourteen, Des was “thrown back into a world of hopelessness” and reoffended. He found himself locked up for four years, 1500km from his family and community.
