Statement from Patricia Lamont

Quotes Attributable to Patricia Lamont.

“This process has already taken so long and I am continually forced to fight for the justice my daughter and I deserve.”

“I only found out about my daughter’s death after Police messaged me on Facebook and then came around to my house.”

“I didn’t know she had been in Melbourne on life support for two days before they came and saw me.”

“The system did not support us properly while my daughter was alive, and the justice system is prolonging my grief and heart-ache.”

“I want answers. I want justice for my daughter. There needs to be accountability for those who were responsible and there needs to be reforms to the systems that lead to this tragedy.”
