We checked each case against a number of data points, including average coronial delay, whether all relevant procedures were followed, and whether the person required additional medical care which was not given.

According to our analysis, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who died in custody were twice as likely to have required additional medical care that was not provided - 32% to 15% of non-Indigenous deaths in custody.

Awesome. Would love to see what comes out! It would be particularly interesting to see a matched sample compared against these people in a case-control design, I reckon you'd find some fascinating insights

The really sad thing is that I have not seen this research done by the organisations involved in providing corrective services, but I am glad that someone is doing it!
