[3] He then sent recordings of officers making racist remarks and advocating for violence against protesters and minorities to Mark Ryan, Queensland Minister for Police and Corrective Services.
"[11] The inquiry's chair, Judge Deborah Richards, recommended widespread reforms in the police service to prevent "gatekeeping" and harassment towards victims and witnesses of misconduct.
[15] In November 2022, the Acting Deputy Commissioner Mark Wheeler issued an apology on behalf of the Queensland Police Service, calling the behaviour in the leaked recordings "appalling".
"[19] Kevin Yow Yeh, director of the Institute for Collaborative Race Research, felt that the racial remarks made in the recordings were "common" among the police force.
[22] In February 2023, Marshall submitted further allegations that human rights abuses had occurred at the Brisbane City Watch House between 2018 and 2019, some of which involved minors.
[6][7] Marshall claimed that prisoners were routinely denied clothing, toilet paper and other amenities by watch house supervisors, and that witnesses were intimidated into not pressing charges against individuals who assaulted them.
The allegations also included reports of watch house officers wrapping towels around the heads of detainees as unauthorized spit hoods or to simulate waterboarding.
[6][25] Marshall claimed that the youth crime bill would place strain on the detention centers and cause "chaos" at watch houses which were not equipped to handle an increase in numbers of detainees.
[25] The allegations were submitted to the state economic and governance committee examining the youth crime bill,[26] but was removed from its website and made confidential shortly after.
