Disgust and hurt at Rolfe's racist texts

A Northern Territory Indigenous police officer has told of his hurt, anger and disgust at the racist texts found on the phone of a fellow officer who shot dead an Aboriginal teenager.

Senior Constable Brad Wallace gave evidence at the inquest into the death of Kumanjayi Walker on Thursday, the 19-year-old who was shot three times during a bungled arrest at Yuendumu in 2019.

Constable Zachary Rolfe was charged with the murder of the Warlpiri man but was acquitted after a Supreme Court trial.
