"My name is Kathleen. My beautiful little grand-nephew, Charlie Mullaley, was taken from his mum, Tamica, in the most horrific circumstances after she was arrested by West Australian Police instead of being helped as a domestic violence victim. Police threw my niece into a van and took her away to be charged, leaving baby Charlie at the site of this horrific domestic violence. Hours later, he was murdered. Now, our family must have justice". "You may have heard of our family’s story on the documentary series, See What You Made Me Do. It was in 2013 when this tragedy occurred, and to this day the WA Police refuse to launch an investigation into the way they failed Tamica and her Baby Charlie. The day our Baby Charlie was tortured and killed began when Tamica’s partner, Mervyn Bell left her bashed, naked and bleeding on a street in Broome following a brutal act of domestic violence". #JusticeForBabyCharlie - The National Justice Project started this petition and is a not-for-profit legal service. They apply their expertise to advancing human rights by representing and giving voice to the vulnerable who would otherwise be unable to find legal representation. Kindly support the family to seek an independent inquiry.
