Vile Audio Of Qld Cops Making Racist Violent Jokes Has Leaked After Complaints Went Nowhere

Audio of Brisbane police joking about beating and burying First Nations people and people of African descent was leaked by a whistleblower on Sunday amid the Queensland inquiry into police responses to domestic and family violence. Officers in Brisbane’s city watch house were recorded in 2019 and 2020 making vile racist and sexist comments, using slurs and suggesting Australia “will be fucking taken over” by non-white people. The audio includes discussions of fears of “outbreeding” by Muslim and African immigrants and saying “where’s the mafia when you need them?” and “let’s just hope Ebola works”. One officer also referred to Nigerian people as “j*gaboos” and another discussed wanting to “bury” First Nations people because “no one would know”. “They wait outside fucking supermarkets and they’ll follow ya and they’ll fucking try and rob ya and I’m thinking … just get ’em and beat the fuck out of them and bury them. Just bury them. Mate, no one would know,” one watch house officer was recorded saying. The recordings were submitted to the inquiry by another watch house officer Steven Marshall. In his four years on the job, he said this was just a snippet of the disgusting language he’s heard. He said he’d made several internal complaints over the years but thought they weren’t taken seriously and that he’d also been told off for speaking up, so his last option was to leak them publicly. It was also revealed on Monday
