“The total population of the Northern Territory is about the same as Hobart, and less than that of Geelong. If we had experienced the loss of seven people to family violence in one regional town in four months, the whole country would be outraged.”

UPDATED (again) Facing a second day of intense questioning, Mr Rolfe said he was "not at all" concerned by findings of a Local Court judge that he lied, lacked credibility and likely "deliberately banged" a man's head into the floor during an arrest.

UPDATED: In a tense exchange with counsel assisting, Mr Abbott KC argued many of Mr Rolfe's text messages read aloud in court were irrelevant to the inquest. "This is not a royal commission into my client, even though sometimes it sounds like it," Mr Abbott KC said.
