This month marks the 30th anniversary of the final report of the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody. This, combined with the fact that there were four Aboriginal deaths in custody last March and another one more recently, makes it timely to examine the issue again.
It is very controversial, but unnecessarily so.
The Guardian recently referred to it as âthis festering crisisâ. If March was a typical month for Aboriginal deaths in custody, then maybe concerns would be justified, but there is not yet evidence this is the case.

Puutu Kunti Kurrama and Pinikura (PKKP) Traditional Owners have welcomed an interim report from the parliamentary inquiry into the destruction of ancient caves at Juukan Gorge.
The inquiry has been investigating the circumstances that led to Rio Tinto detonating the 46,000-year-old rock shelters in May.
The committee s report called for Rio Tinto to negotiate compensation with PKKP people, to undertake a restoration process at the site, and to uphold a permanent moratorium on mining in the area.
PKKP Aboriginal Corporation spokesman Burchell Hayes welcomed the preliminary findings, saying Traditional Owners are looking forward to the full report, which is set to be released next year.
