Doreen Langham, who had a Domestic Violence Order out against Gary Hely called triple zero, just hours before her home was set alight but her call for help was marked “non-urgent”.

We’re not going to just look at what happened in this incident, from the ninth on, we’re going to go, well what did we know before that? what was available? what was in systems? what was in national systems? what else was in our systems? did the system actually work?”
