INQUEST INTO DEATH OF KARIONG INMATE PUSHED BACK

An inquest into the death of an indigenous Kariong Correctional Centre inmate has been adjourned, after new evidence was admitted.

We warn our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander viewers this story contains the image and name of a person who has died.

20-year-old Bailey Mackander passed away in November 2019 after he fell 10-metres while under guard at Gosford Hospital.

The inquest resumes Monday, after one of the parties required new legal representation.
