Mornings With John Mackenzie

John MacKenzie chats with Perri Conti, Co-Founder of Changing Cairns Crime Problems, after the denial of any problems in Far North Queensland by the State Minister for Children and Youth Justice, Leanne Linard. The minister's response to skyrocketing criminal activity by young offenders came as a shock to victims who have to deal with the ongoing mental health impacts of crime. Instead of addressing the salient concerns felt by anxious residents, Minister Linard confused listeners by overlooking the practical significance of crime to focus on politically-favourable figures.
