The Australian-born terrorist behind the Christchurch mosque shootings was openly racist at school, experienced family violence at home and had unsupervised access to the internet from childhood.
These details about Brenton Tarrant s early life were revealed last week in a report by the New Zealand Royal Commission of Inquiry into the 2019 terrorism attack in which 51 people were murdered.
Australian Brenton Tarrant was sentenced to life imprisonment without parole for the Christchurch mosque attacks.
Australia’s ‘bizarre and cruel’ refugee deterrence policy is keeping 1,500 people in limbo

Between the declaration of that policy by then-Australian prime minister Kevin Rudd on July 19, 2013, and the last transfer offshore in December 2014, Australia sent 3,127 people seeking protection as refugees to Nauru and Papua New Guinea’s (PNG) Manus Island.
