Premium Content Subscriber only A Palm Island police officer who illegally shared leaked footage of a police car hitting a teenager has been told her actions comprised the tense relationship between police and island locals. Acting Senior Constable Erica Woodward Thompson, 36, was sentenced in the Townsville Magistrates Court yesterday for improperly disclosing Queensland Police Service information. The highly confidential footage, captured via dashboard and body cameras, depicted an incident at Palm Island on August 29 where a marked police car hit an 18-year-old as officers tried to arrest him. Thompson herself was not involved in the arrest. Magistrate Ross Mack told Thompson her actions did little to mend the tense relationship Palm Islanders had with law enforcement in the wake of the 2004 riots that were inflamed after an Indigenous death in custody.
