Marc Newhouse is from Death in Custody Watch WA, and joined Amy McQuire on the programme to talk about the death in custody of Yamitji woman Julieka Dhu, who passed away in a South Hedland watchhouse after being jailed for $1000 in unpaid parking fines.

After a year of campaigning, Ms Dhu’s family have secured a coronial inquest, which kicks off on Friday October 23rd. Death in Custody Watch WA is running a crowd-funding campaign in order to have a presence at the inquest, to not only support the family but also bare witness to what happens.

The group is a non-for-profit and receives no government funding. It relies solely on the generosity on its supporters and members of the public.
