Notes: | Indigenous people (Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Australians) are disproportionately victims and offenders in homicide incidents both in relation to their relative proportion of the Australian population and in comparison with their non-Indigenous counterparts. The rate of both victimisation and offending by Indigenous people was approximately five times higher than that of non-Indigenous people (Bryant & Cussen 2015). This paper describes selected characteristics of Indigenous and non-Indigenous homicides as recorded within the AIC's National Homicide Monitoring Program (NHMP) from 1 July 1989 to 30 June 2012. |
