BAIL AFTER ALLEGEDLY FRACTURING A CHILD’S SKULL
The Australian Federal Police Association (AFPA) is disgusted and horrified after a 29-year-old man and a 28-year-old woman were granted bail in the ACT Magistrates Court after being accused of seriously injuring a four-year-old boy, allegedly leaving the child with a fractured skull and other injuries.
AFPA President Alex Caruana said that the 29-year-old man was granted bail one day after the co-accused was also granted bail.
“The man was already on parole for serious offences and now gets bail after a four-year-old child in his care has allegedly been repeatedly struck with a blunt circular object, leaving him with a fractured skull and other injuries.
Statement regarding Brittany Higgins’ social media post
The Australian Federal Police Association (AFPA) notes the social media post made by Ms Brittany Higgins regarding the conduct of ACT Policing members.
The Association refers to Mr Walter Sofronoff KC Inquiry that found while police investigating the allegations made mistakes, they acted in good faith and conducted a thorough investigation.
AFPA President Alex Caruana said that ACT Policing had accepted nearly all the recommendations from the Inquiry without reservation and that two recommendations require further consultation.
