In this episode, we reflect on the tragic events out of Alice Springs and the loss of Kumunjayi Little Baby.

We break down what actually happens during a major police investigation—from the initial response, search efforts, and escalation, through to arrest and the long road to prosecution.

It’s a confronting conversation, but an important one. We talk about the balance between emotion and evidence, why process matters, and the reality of policing during incidents like this.

We also touch on our time at the National Suicide Prevention Conference, focusing on practical solutions and the importance of supporting those on the front line.

Our thoughts are with the family, the Alice Springs community, and all those involved.
