About this listen
WARNING: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander listeners are warned that this story details the accounts and names of deceased persons.
Since the fateful day in 1986 when Yindjibarndi boy, John Pat, died in police custody, the 28th of September has been known as John Pat day in Australia. It is a constant reminder of the oppression and injustice that the indigenous people continue to face. His death launched the landmark Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody and exposed the fractured relationship between the justice system and First Nations people. To this day, no one has ever been found guilty of an Indigenous death in custody in Australia.
