She fell and suffered a fractured skull and brain bleed and is fighting for her life. She approached them on walking frame with a knife, police say. This disgusting incident was captured on body-can. And is currently being investigated by the Police. Surely police shouldn’t be investigating themselves?? https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2023/may/19/homicide-squad-officers-to-investigate-senior-constables-tasering-of-95-year-old-aged-care-resident?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other #dementia #UnnecessaryForce #PoliceStupidity #respect
