A barrister acting for the police officer charged over a north Queensland death in custody has accused prosecutors of being "out to get" him.
Can you believe that? This racist, fascist bastard killed man brutally splitting his liver in half by his knee and is crying loud now that they are "out to get him"

Asked by prosecutor Peter Davis SC if he had come to terms with the fact that he had caused the death of the 36-year-old man, Hurley responded: "Yes." Despite earlier telling officers investigating the death he had fallen beside Mulrunji during a scuffle at the doorway of the watchhouse, Hurley today conceded he must have landed on top of him. However, he described the incident as "a grey area" and said he'd only changed his mind after hearing evidence from medical experts. Experts have said the fatal injuries suffered by Mulrunji were likely to have been caused by a "complicated fall" in which Hurley landed on top of the deceased with his knee protruding.

A Townsville jury yesterday found Senior Sergeant Hurley not guilty of manslaughter and assault over the death of Mulrunji Doomadgee, 36, in the Palm Island watchhouse in 2004.
And that's not all. Police Union is calling Queensland government Zimbabwe for daring to even put him on trial. I would think of some other countries to compare this situation where white policeman can freely kill black man in custody and be acquitted just because there were no witnesses. He was the only one in contact with deceased and poor man died of the horrific brutal injury...but nope. No sufficient evidence that he killed him. If the world didn't know about poor Australian human rights record some may be surprised but the world knows...so nothing new here in Australia.
