Serious police failings in the lead-up to the murders of Brisbane woman Hannah Clarke and her three children challenge the official finding that nothing more could have been done to save them. Two whistleblowers from within the Queensland police and the state coroners court have spoken to Guardian Australia in the hope their revelations will change the way domestic violence cases and deaths are handled.
But it is not just one case. New evidence suggests that police failed at least two other women before their deaths, and failed them again after they died by not properly investigating those failures.
If something more could have been done to protect Hannah Clarke, then could something more have been done for the women whose names we don’t know?
