Episode Details

A damning internal police report reveals Queenslanders are overwhelmingly disillusioned with youth crime responses, scoring sentiment at just two out of ten — calling it “extremely negative.” Public anger stems from perceived judicial failures, downplayed victim numbers, and government tactics that cherry-pick data to fuel a crisis narrative. While some support rehabilitation and acknowledge trauma and poverty as root causes, hardline calls for mandatory sentencing dominate social media. Experts warn social media distorts reality, and the government’s selective stats — including a disputed 193% rise in victims — mislead the public. Calls are growing for independent oversight to restore trust in crime data and policy.
