I believe this person committed violence against women. Great idea to put him in a women's prison.

Also keep in mind, Indigenous Aboriginal women are over-represented in Australia's prisons, both male and female. Indigenous women already experience the highest rates of rape and domestic violence, the worst healthcare outcomes, are the most economically marginalised, and have the worst life expectancy in Australia. ABC can fuck right off with this pandering nonsense. They've been running non-stop BLM coverage (a lot of it related to Indigenous people in the local context). So which is it? Do Indigenous women matter, or do violent men matter?

yeah, it's clear this article was written in a sympathetic light towards the TiM. apparently "identity" matters more than women's safety and that is tragic.
