Awkward AUKUS standoff + Indigenous deaths in custody crisis

Afternoon Headlines: $368 billion AUKUS deal under review by the US, National Anti-Corruption Commission rules out any corruption in Brittany Higgins’ $2.4m pay-out and Elon Musk has apologies to US President Donald Trump over X posts

Deep Dive: The federal government is under growing pressure to step in over an increasing rate of rising Aboriginal incarceration and deaths in custody.

Calls are growing for an independent review into the death of a 24-year-old Kumanjayi White, who allegedly died after being restrained by Northern Territory Police at a supermarket in Alice Springs last month. Over the weekend, another 68-year-old Indigenous man died in police custody whilst at the Royal Darwin hospital.

In this episode of The Briefing, Natarsha Belling is joined by Lawyer George Newhouse, who is representing the White family, to explain why we need urgent action.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander listeners are advised that this episode contains the name of an Indigenous person who has passed away.
