Diet,

Please browse to:

I work these pages for the Deaths In Custody Watch Committee (WA) Inc.  
Amongst them you will find, for example, a complete listing of all deaths 
in WA since 1989, both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal .  

Further, in the middle of the working homepage (windex.html) you will find 
a logo of the Watch Committee, a dot painting of a noose, it is temporarily 
linked to my work-in-progress which is the html-ing of our recent 
submission to the UN.  Also, please note the recent Ombudsman's report on 
Deaths In Custody, it is a three years too late document, by a lawyer about 
a lawyer bound (read constipated) system, but has some valid 
recommendations nontheless.

Please do not hesitate to contact me at this email if necessary and be 
reminded that Western Australia, as claimed to the UN Committee on Torture 
and accepted by them, has the highest "ethnic" incarceration rate in the 
world!

On that sobering and disgusting thought, I'll close for now and wish you 
the best for your programme.
