On the morning of 11 January 2025, I telephoned 000 and requested help from the Queensland Police Service (QPS) given:

I had been unable to get any help from any police services in any other way; and

The history of this matter of receiving no response whatsoever, even a year after making a report and being very badly treated and ignored by the various police services; and

I had not received a confirmation from QPS that my documentation had been received despite:-

Multiple attempts to contact them by telephone to Policelink and the Ravenshoe Police Station;

Multiple attempts to receive a confirmation of receipt by email;

Being falsely informed that QPS was currently looking at my information that was then contradicted by being informed that they had not even received it.

I was very clear that I was Not requesting the QAS and did not consent to the attendance of the QAS at my residence. (Audio recording 0827).

The Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) attended my residence, despite the fact that I had requested for this not to happen and that I did not require the help of the QAS. I informed the ambulance officers of the situation. They were satisfied that I was okay and left. (Audio recording 0829 & 0830).

I received no contact from QPS at this time. This behaviour of the QPS, of not responding to my request for help from them and instead referring my request for help to QAS is an illegal assumption of mental incompetency, which contravenes section 26 of the Queensland Criminal Code (1899).

Despite this illegality, this behaviour is nevertheless consistent with the typical pattern of behaviour that the various police services (QPS, NSWPS and AFP) have consistently demonstrated in their dealings (and refusal to act) in relation to this matter.

The decision of the QPS to not respond to my request for help is completely inappropriate given my previous multiple attempts to communicate with the QPS in a reasonable manner and lack of reply in the years and weeks preceding this interaction.

The only reason that I telephoned 000 is because I was not able to obtain a response from Senior Constable Heidi O’Connor as she verbally indicated that she would do (Audio Recording 0803).

If QPS had simply confirmed that they had received my information, or not lied to me by informing me that they were looking at my information when they had not even received it, or if indeed the QPS, NSWPS or AFP had acted in this matter in a reasonable matter at any point up until this time, none of the events of this day would ever have happened.

During the lengthy and amenable conversation that I had with the QAS officers at this time, I informed them of the above points, and that:-

I was being targeted by human traffickers, that I was being trafficked and that I had prepared a lengthy document, which I had supplied to Senior Constable Heidi O’Connor of the Ravenshoe Police Station, but not been able to receive confirmation from anyone from QPS that those documents had been received, despite the false assurance of SC O’Connor that she would return my telephone calls and multiple attempts to receive confirmation from both the Ravenshoe Police Station by email and telephone and by telephone with Policelink.

I had been the target of family abuse in the form of severe financial abuse for a really long time to the point that I had no freedom and could not even afford food. I had been severely attacked and injured by pack of dogs, that QPS had refused to even take a statement about the attack, that Mareeba Shire Council and the Office of Information Commission were failing to provide me with information in relation to the attack.

I also informed them that I had just come from a very unsafe situation at previous caravan park (Trinity Plains Caravan Park), which also involved improper action by the Mareeba Community Centre, who have a clear conflict of interest in this matter.

My family includes my uncle, Jim Soorley, who is a high profile member of the ALP and that because of what I know and the evidence that I have in relation to his involvement in inheritance fraud, I am obviously ‘a problem’ to people in positions of power in Queensland.

That I had been attempting to obtain help from the QPS, NSWPS and AFP for over a year, and that despite this no-one from the NSWPS, QPS or AFP had permitted me to even make a statement. Because of the obvious hostility and dismissive actions (and lack of) the QPS, I wanted to make an appointment to make a statement in a manner that would be safe for me.

That I did not feel safe with Mareeba Police Station as I had reason to believe that members of the QPS were corrupt and were acting improperly. Instead, I had made contact with Senior Constable Heidi O’Connor of Ravenshoe Police Station who had attended at my residence and had assured me that she would return my telephone calls, but had failed to do so. She had also not confirmed that she had received the documents, which I had provided to her by email.

I specifically stated that I did not want the local Mareeba police to come to my residence as there would be no point (as this would not allow them the space to read the extensive documentation that I have) and “They will just make me out to be crazy”.

On the suggestion by the QAS officer that I go to the Mareeba Police Station. I said that “I would not feel comfortable doing that because I know that they are going to ridicule me and humiliate me and that apart from the fact that there would be not point and they would not take me seriously, it would also as not safe for me to do. The officer said words to the effect of (the recording is a little unclear here) that the only other option that they had would be some action according to the Mental Health (Act) and that “I definitely do not meet any criteria to do that”.

The only thing that happens to people reporting human trafficking that involves corruption in the police force was that they are funneled into the mental health system and that I was in danger in a way that required help from (non-corrupt) police, not the QAS.

I was very clear that at no point did I ask for help from QAS and the referral of the QPS to QAS was illegal and inappropriate. At the suggestion by the QAS officers that I should be transported anywhere I stated clearly “I do not want to be taken anywhere” and “Why should I be transported because the police are failing to act?”

I stated very clearly that “I do not trust the medical system” and that I had very good reasons for this. The QAS officer acknowledged that “we do not have anything outside the medical system. I am sorry to pass the buck”.

I informed the officer that “What you are offering to me is not helpful” and that “You are not helping me by attending. You are only making me look crazy. This situation is forcing me to talk to you and I am not receiving help.”

Shortly after this, I received a telephone call from a man identifying himself a “Constable Mitchell” from the Queensland Police Service. He did not provide me with his last name, although I discovered later that day that his full name was Constable Mitchell Patterson. (Audio Recording 0832).

I asked Constable Mitchell Patterson if he was from the Mareeba Police. He lied. He said “No, I am not”. I informed him that “I have not been given the chance to make a statement” and had received no confirmation that the information that I had provided to Senior Constable Heidi O’Connor from the Ravenshoe Police Station had been received, despite multiple requests for same.

He said that he could not confirm whether SC O’Connor from Ravenshoe Police Station did get the documents that I sent her or not. He said that he could see a record on his system of the email but that there was no document attached to it.

I asked if I could provide it to him. He told me that “If you want to give a statement, you have to go into a station to do that”.

I told him that I have tried (to give a statement in the past) and was specifically not allowed to do that.

I informed Constable Mitchell Patterson that I was scared of the Police (for good reason) and stated specifically and repeatedly, that I was scared of the Mareeba Police Station.

Despite this he repeatedly encouraged me to attend my local station (being Mareeba Police Station).

At no point did Constable Mitchell Patterson inform me that he was from the Mareeba Police Station or correct his previous lie that he was not from the Mareeba Police Station, whilst he was encouraging me to do this.

He stated repeatedly throughout this conversation that I would need to go the police station even though I informed him that it was dangerous for me to go into the local police station because they are corrupt and I am being trafficked.

He said that he read that on the report. He informed me that I could not provide the information over the phone, that there was no way that I could call him back and that I had to go into the local (Mareeba) station even though that might be dangerous for me.

This is another lie as it would have been very easy for Constable Mitchell Patterson to provide me with an email address.

I asked Constable Mitchell Patterson “If there was any provision within the QPS to take into consideration the possibility that there is corruption within the police service?” He stated “By saying that you believe the police to be corrupt, you are offending me”. When I replied that “There are things that are more important that your offence”.

His response to that was “You need to attend your local police station.” No matter what I said after this, Constable Mitchell Patterson kept insisting that I needed to attend my local police station (being Mareeba Police Station) to provide the information.

Against my better (and as it turns out, completely correct) judgment that it would not be helpful for me to go into the Mareeba Police Station as I was very likely to be mistreated and not be helped, but seeing it as the only option that the QPS would offer me to move this matter forward and to hopefully get some help, despite my fear of the way that I would be treated and lack of any confidence that I would receive any actual help, on the encouragement and repeated insistence of Constable Mitchell Patterson and lack of any response from any other employee of the QPS, I attended the Mareeba Police Station. (Audio Recording 0833).

Given the attitude and belief of Constable Mitchell Patterson that his mere ‘offence’ at the suggestion that members of the QPS could possibly be corrupt was more important than actually doing anything about that possibility or providing me with any mechanism for protecting myself from this corruption, I would not have attended the Mareeba Police station that day or any day. I would also not have attended the Mareeba Police Station that day if had had known that Constable Mitchell Patterson had not only repeatedly lied to me about not being from the Mareeba Police Station but was the only officer present (or so he informed me) at the time and day on which I attended the Mareeba Police Station.

I therefore attended Mareeba Police Station under false presences after Constable Mitchell Patterson had deliberately lied to me. This was clearly a ploy by Constable Mitchell Patterson to harass me under the pretense of offering me ‘help’. No reasonable person would listen to the recording of this conversation and conclude that he ever had any intention of taking me seriously or helping me in any way.

This visit to the counter of the Mareeba Police Station lasted approximately 20 minutes whilst Constable Mitchell Patterson bullied, filibustered and was very obtuse and difficult.

For approximately 10 minutes, Constable Patterson refused to confirm that the QPS had a copy of the information that I had emailed to Senior Constable Heidi O’Connor of the Ravenshoe Police Service.

Constable Mitchell Patterson refused to provide me with an email address for the Mareeba Police Station so that I could simply just email the documents directly to him. He would also not answer the question as to why I could not just email it directly to him or to the Mareeba Police Station directly.

When I asked him “Is there a problem with me sending it to you right now?” He answered, “There is no need”. This is despite the fact that he had informed me on the telephone earlier that day that he could see no record of a email from myself with attachments and had also repeatedly (for approximately 10 minutes utterly refused to confirm that the QPS had actually received the appropriate email with the necessary attachments).

Eventually Constable Mitchell Patterson confirmed that he (the QPS) had received an email from me with attachments on 7 January 2025, a fact which he could have confirmed just as easily during the earlier telephone call that day, which again would have made my entire visit to the Mareeba Police Station that day completely unnecessary. He could have also confirmed that the attachments had been received in any of preceding 10 minutes that I had been present at the Police Station. He said that the matter was being investigated and confirmed that someone would get back to me about it. This still has not happened. Given the attitude of the QPS officers that I have interacted with about this matter, the fact that it is over a year now and I have still not received a response from the AFP, despite multiple reports and the fact that NSWPS have also failed to act in relation to my correspondence, I have zero confidence that this is true.

Constable Mitchell Patterson then asked me to give him a summary of the documents. I started to tell him about the human trafficking, the stolen inheritance and corruption within the police force the severe multiple dog attack upon my self at my home in Mt. Molloy, which required an operation at Cairns hospital, which QPS refused to investigate or even file a report about the ‘investigation’ and cover-up by Mareeba Shire Council, the corruption of the Queensland Office of Information Commission, being poisoned and subjected to unreasonably and inexplicably high levels of electricity, the financial abuse and the hacking of my devices and the fact that I had tried on multiple occasions to report these matters to QPS, NSWPS and the AFP and had not been able to give a statement to date.

Despite having not read any of the documents, Constable Mitchell Patterson kept interrupting me with the attitude of what I was saying was nonsense and irrelevant. He was clearly not allowing me to make a statement. When I spoke about there being more information in the documents which I had sent to the police, he kept interrupting me. When I asked him to please stop interrupting me, he said that “I was going off on a tangent” and that I was offending him.

Whenever I would attempt to explain further, he would interrupt me. Then when I would stop, he would intimate that I wasn’t giving him the information. When I would start to speak again, he would again interrupt.

When I started to speak about the inappropriate actions of people within the medical profession, including being poisoned by pharmaceutical medications, Constable Mitchell Patterson again cut me off and tried to belittled at the mere suggestion that someone in the medical field would not act with anything but ‘good will” towards me.

When I enquired “How do you know that?” He replied “Pharmacists don’t try to poison you”, that is not what they do. When I enquired of him “So there has never been a doctor who has poisoned anyone?” He replied “Because that it not what they do”.

To clarify this I again asked “So it is your belief that there has never ever been a doctor who has murdered anybody?” He replied “No, not on purpose, No.” When I again asked “So there has never been a pharmacist who has poisoned anybody?” He answered “Not on purpose, they don’t do that.”

I again tried to clarify by saying “So there is some magical thing that happens when you become a doctor or a pharmacist that means you are not capable of murder?” He replied “They sign an oath. They are there to help people.”

At this point I asked to please speak to someone else as it was obvious that he was not taking me seriously. He informed me that he was the only person present.

I again tried to clarify with him by saying “So you are categorically saying that a doctor or pharmacist is not capable of murder?” When he indicated in the affirmative, I said “I am going to end this conversation because you are not taking me seriously. You are being ridiculous. You are being very disrespectful.”

I also said “Can I please speak to someone else when someone else comes in?” He replied “No, I am trying to take your statement.” I will have to look at the tape, as I only have an audio recording but I do not recall him taking any notes and it was clear from his stance and tone that he was not in fact ‘trying to take my statement’. I said “You are not speaking to me like a reasonable human being and you are not acting like a reasonable human being.”

Constable Mitchell Patterson then said that he is “trying to get the details”. This was clearly not true and is a gross example of gaslighting. A far as I can recall, he was taking no details and would not let me speak without interrupting.

Constable Mitchell Patterson continued to try to communicate me disrespectfully after I had clearly ended the conversation and was attempting to leave the police station. I thanked him and left the Mareeba Police Station. (Audio Recording 0833).

Due to the fact that Constable Mitchell Patterson of Mareeba Police Station had made it very obvious that I was not going to get any help from them and as I could see no other options (apart from returning to the Mareeba Police Station where I had no reason to believe that I would be treated any better or taken any more seriously than I had been by any other employee of the QPS in this matter, I again telephoned 000 and informed them that I was being trafficked and that the local Police were corrupt and would not help me. (Audio recording 0834).

Despite this, they offered to send the Mareeba police to me. I said categorically that I did not want them to attend as Constable Mitchell Patterson had informed me that day that he was the only officer present and I therefore knew that there was a very high probably that the officer that they would send to my residence would be him. I informed the operator that the Mareeba Police were not taking me seriously, that they were awful and that I was in danger.

They informed me that “If I put a job on, the only people who will come are the local police”. They then informed me that I can report it to Policelink and they can do an “Intelligence Report” and put me through to Policelink. (Audio recording 0834).

During this telephone call to Policelink, due to the manner in which I have been treated throughout this matter and particularly lured into the Mareeba Police Station under false pretenses by Constable Mitchell Patterson, only to be bullied, gaslit and not helped, I was very upset and obviously distressed and frustrated at times (Audio recordings 0835, 0837, 0839). To say that my completely understandable emotional reaction to this horrendous treatment and bullying (which is an extension of family abuse) is evidence of a ‘mental illness’ is a clear and disgusting example of reactive abuse.

The Policelink operator told me that “I am very limited as to what I can do”. She then said that she was going to get the local police to attend my location. I asked her very clearly to “Please don’t not do that!” and “Would you please promise me that you will not do that?” She said “Okay.” I then asked her “Why would you do that?” as I had informed her about what had happened earlier in the day. She said that she is not an operational police officer and that that was the only thing that she could do. I asked her “Can you see why I am so distressed? The only help that you are offering me is to send the same (officer who had just abused me). It is absolute insanity.”

The operator asked me for more information. I asked her what the purpose of that would be, if she can’t help me. She said that she would speak to the Sergeant (at Mareeba?). I informed Policelink that:-

I was not safe and that I was being trafficked and controlled by my family and a network of people and that it was a pattern of behaviour, not only one separate incident.

There was evidence of corruption by police and if I said anything against them that they would get offended and treat me badly.

I had called 000 this morning to request help from the police, but that they had sent an ambulance instead, despite my specific request that they not dot this.

That Constable Mitchell Patterson, of the Mareeba Police Station had encouraged me to attend the Mareeba Police Station under false pretenses and then had treated me “like and idiot” and said things that are blatantly untrue. I said that I did not wish to go into the Mareeba Police Station again as it was a ‘hideous’ experience and that I was disgusted with the QPS.

That it was my belief that “everyone in the police service was happy to sit back and let me be trafficked and die”. That all anyone from the police service could offer me is for the local (Mareeba) Police to attend. I also said that ( it seemed like) the police don’t even have to follow any laws. They just do whatever they want to.

The operator said “I am going to be able to assist you” and that I can make a police complaint. I informed her that I didn’t have the energy to being making complaints at that time that will go into a bureaucratic black hole and that I needed actual help. I said that “if that (sending the local police to my residence) is the only help that you can offer me, then there is no point of me being on the phone.” She said that she would “write down the information and pass it on the correct department.”

I informed her that (I believe that) the group who is targeting me are “are trying to get me to kill myself before I am captured and tortured”.

I always made it very clear in all of my conversations with people about this matter that I have no intention of hurting myself or anyone else.

When she enquired “Do I know the group of people who is doing this?” I replied “Yes, my family are involved. It is a network, not restricted to Queensland.” When she asked whether I have names I said yes, I have provided them to the police many times. I then, once again, named my uncle Jim Soorley, the former ALP Mayor of Brisbane in relation to fraud and Beau Erlandsson, the owner of the pack of dogs who attacked me in April 2022 years ago and that he was well known to the police, that his brother is in jail and that he has connections to organised crime. I informed her that the local police officer in town refused to allow me to make a statement and that I haven’t had a safe place since.

I am afraid that my daughter is going to be trafficked. That there is at least one sex tape in relation to me that exists that was taken by my daughter’s father who had filmed me without my knowledge or consent and that he had stalked me for a very long time.

Evidence of paternity fraud in relation to another child in order to prevent me from receiving child support and resulting in putting another child at risk.

I referred to the unsolved murder case Lee Ellen Stace of 1997, which occurred in my home town, which I have some information which may be relevant to that investigation.

That no one (from the police) has responded to me and that there had been no investigation of Jim Soorley and the inheritance fraud even though I had evidence of him lying in black in white and my family improperly using the mental health system in an attempt to cover it up.

When I asked about what would happen from here, the operator could not give me a name or a time frame of when, if ever, someone would ever get back to me. She said that there would be an “Intelligence report” and that “it will get looked at by an (unnamed) police officer”. I have still not received any response in relation to this supposed ‘intelligence report’ despite the continued harassment that I am constantly subjected to.

I also confirmed that I refused the assistance of the QAS officers who attended my residence that morning as I required help from the QPS, not the QAS.

I again telephoned 000 and asked for help from the QPS. (Audio Recording 0839). I did this because, despite my many attempts to obtain help from the QPS that day I was no closer to obtaining any actual help from the QPS than I was over a year ago.

Therefore given:

The lack of any probability that anything would ever come of any my previous requests for help or communication with the QPS (2 months on, I have still received no response);

The fact that I had been given no name and no time frame in which to expect any response from the QPS;

The fact that I have waited for over a year and not received a response from the AFP;

The fact that no reasonable person would expect any actual help from the Mareeba Police Service after being lied to and bullied, gaslit, ridiculed and not helped whilst I was there.

I was still being trafficked and targeted by human traffickers in a multitude of ways that had left me without any real freedom and not even enough food.

Instead of receiving any actual help from the QPS, I again received a telephone call from QAS stating that they had (again) received a telephone call from QPS and asked for my location to attend my residence. I again informed them that I had never asked for the ambulance to come and that I did not see the point of them coming. I informed them that I had been to Mareeba Police Station that morning, that I won’t be doing that again as I was treated very badly there and that I was made fun of and mocked whilst I was am being trafficked. They said they would follow it up. (Audio recording 0840).

Given the continued lack of any effective help, and the continual referrals away from the QPS to the QAS, I again called Policelink. I briefly recounted my interactions with the police that day and asked again for help from the QPS. The only help which I was offered was to make a complaint, I was offered no actual help. (Audio Recording 0843).

The QAS attended at my Caravan again some time after this telephone conversation, despite my repeated requests for this not to happen. I explained to the QAS officer who attended that I had attended at the Mareeba Police Station early in the day, as had been repeatedly suggested to me and that Constable Mitchell Patterson had misrepresented himself, mocked me and behaved in a ridiculous and bullying manner. (Audio recording 0844).

The QAS officer who attended stated that they had been referred to me by the State Mental Health Liaison Officer over concerns for my welfare, that they were very limited in what they could do, that their hands were tired and that they were struggling because they can’t help me. They said that their only option was to take me to the hospital.

I asked what would be the benefit of me being there?

I also asked them whether they understood ‘reactive abuse’ and informed them that the police were gaslighting me at that time and that it was a very human reaction to be upset when being gaslit and that the purpose of this was to make me look insane in order to have me under their control and drugged. I stated that anyone who was being gaslit on this level is going to have some sort of emotional reaction to it and that the police were not even pretending to be reasonable.

I again informed him that the system was very compartmentalised and operating in a really abusive way. The officer admitted that, as difficult as that is, that they don’t have a lot of experience in with this.

I informed the officer about my experience with the NSW Mental Health system, that I have evidence of this behaviour being initiated by my family members (including Jim Soorley). I said that anybody else would be gaol (if they behaved like this).

I asked the officer if he could see why I am very sceptical of the whole thing? He said “Yes”.

I asked the officer if the QAS has a policy to deal with human trafficking victims? He answered “No” and that “we have to report it to the police” and that if they receive a report from the police, then they will attend to conduct a welfare check and do a psychological assessment. I acknowledged that this systems allows for a lot of misconceptions and the inadvertent involvement of the QAS by corrupt members of the police force in human trafficking.

I made it very clear that “I have no intention of harming myself” I very clearly said that “I have no intention of harming myself in any way”.

I stated that the AFP website talks about how human trafficking should be dealt with, but they (the police) are not doing that.

The QAS officer then said that “We are hoping to take you to a place of safety” and that this was because I was in fear for my life. No distinction here was made about where the fear from my life was coming from or the fact that the being forced into the mental health system by corrupt police officers was not ‘a place of safety’. They said that there was no other choice. No-one mentioned actually investigating this matter as being another possible choice. (Audio recording 0844).

The QAS officer went away (and I believe conferred with the members of the Mareeba Police Station (including Constable Mitchell Patterson who had previously lied to be an abused me) who were in attendance at my residence at that time, despite my repeated and recorded requests for that not to happen. (Audio reference 0845).

He then returned and said “We have come to an agreement that is a really big thing for you to be talking about my concern for my life and that they needed to take it seriously.” He said that “We are hoping to take you up to the hospital today. It is a place of safety.” No acknowledgment or distinction was made here that my expression of concern for my life was coming from the continued harassment from human traffickers and the lack of any investigation and action from the QPS, not from any harm that I would do to myself. I had no intention to hurt myself. I had repeatedly communicated that I had no intention of hurting myself or anybody else in any way.

I informed the QAS officer that “I do not find it (the hospital) to be a safe place.” I then asked “Are you taking me to the hospital against my will?”

I was informed that “yes” and the QAS officer referred to the unnamed Mental Health Liaison Officer and that “We have no other choice today”. This is not true. QAS could have and should have refused to act on the illegal actions of the QPS. Again, there no was no reference to the improper actions and ‘failures to act’ of the police, of which the QAS officers had been informed.

The QAS officer said “You have said that you are in fear for your life”. It needs to be noted here that at no point did I ever say that I had any intention of hurting myself. I said repeatedly that day and in the days leading up to this event that “I have no intention of hurting myself.”

The QAS officer said “Yeah, we are going to have to, because we keep getting called back here.” It needs to be noted here that it was the QPS who had repeatedly and illegally called the QAS, not myself! How does this make any sense? Not one of these calls was originated by myself and I had repeatedly communicated to everyone involved that I did not require the attendance by the QAS and that I was not a danger to myself or anyone else. It is particularly repulsive that Constable Mitchell Patterson, who had lied to me and encouraged me to attend the Mareeba Police Station in order to bully, gaslight and repeat patently untrue statements earlier that day was present for these conversation and in attendance at my residence at this time.

I said that “I am telling you, it is not safe for me to do that” and that “I haven’t done anything wrong”, “I am saying that I don’t want to go”.

I then asked “What happens if I refuse to go?” The QAS officer said that “You can come with us otherwise we do need to get the police involved”. I answered that they would need to get the police involved. I stated that “Because I am not willing to be to be silently trafficked, that now I am officially being taken against my will”.

Constable Mitchell Patterson from the Mareeba Police Station then appear at the door of my caravan. Given how he had treated me earlier that day, I could not believe that this man had was being enabled to participate in illegally taking me to a hospital against my will. I asked multiple times “Can you please ask him to go away?” He kept trying to talk to me. I said “I don’t want to hear anything that you have to say.” (Audio reference 0845).

I was then informed by a QPS officer that “You have been detained under the Mental Health Act” and that “If you don’t come voluntarily…”. (Audio Reference 0846).

At that point I saw Constable Mitchell Patterson (again) hovering around the entrance to residence. I said “I don’t want that man near me. I don’t want to see him, hovering”.

The QPS officer said that “I would like to hear about this matter that is going on behind the scenes”. He then made the incredibly inappropriate suggestion that “On the way to the hospital, we can talk about it”. I said that “I don’t want to be speaking to you in that environment or on the way to the hospital. I deserve to be treated like a human being and I am not being treated like a human being at the moment”.

If I am being detained under the Mental Health Act for a psychological assessment, it is completely inappropriate for a member of the QPS to be saying that he wants to speak to me about the details of this matter, whilst I am being transported against my will, in an ambulance to a hospital. This situation is even more true under the circumstances of my having not received a response in relation to my written documentation from the AFP for over a year and more recently, that very day, having spent over 10 minutes attempting to get Constable Mitchell Patterson of the Mareeba Police Station to even confirm that the QPS had even received the documentation and not allowing me to make a proper statement.

The QPS officer asked me “Are you going to come voluntarily with us?” I informed the QPS officer that “I don’t want to come” and asked him “If I don’t come with you voluntarily, will you man-handle me?” He said that he would “use the force that was reasonably necessary’.

I informed the QPS officer that “I will come under duress” and asked if “I can I pull myself together please before we go”. I wanted to pack a bag. I take supplements throughout the day and I am sensitive to the cold and sound due to my autism (which I had informed the QAS officer of earlier that day), so I needed to take a minute to think about what I might need with me. I also needed to secure my caravan and just take a minute to think about what I might need.

The QPS officer was very impatient and rude and said “We can’t wait all day for you to pack a bag.” I grabbed a few things. He did not give me a proper opportunity to pack what I needed, for what ended up being a multi-day stay. Due to this, I was required to stay in dirty clothes, without even a change of underwear for multiple days. He also did not allow me the opportunity to secure my caravan, which I was forced to leave unattended during storm season. If it was not for some helpful neighbors, I would have lost the annex of my caravan due to the wind that it was subjected to whilst I was detained. I have still not had the opportunity to do a proper accounting, however I am concerned that at least one document disappeared from my caravan during the time that I was detained as well. Also given that various products have been contaminated (or poisoned) whilst in my caravan in the past, being made to leave my caravan unattended for multiple das and nights was very dangerous for me. My caravan is only secured by a very basic lock, which could be easily picked by someone who knows how to do that.

I asked “How long will I be there for?” The QPS officer answered “I am not sure at this point in time”. He gave me absolutely no idea how long I would be detained for, despite there being clear requirements about clear communication and legal time-frames for detainment according to both the Queensland Mental Health Act 2016 and the Queensland Public Service Acts 2005.

When I came out of the caravan, I again saw Constable Mitchell Patterson hoovering about. I stated that “I won’t be going in a vehicle with that person”. I then asked “Can I take myself?” I was informed by the QPS officer that no, I had to go in the ambulance.

I said repeatedly that “I don’t want to be in hospital.” The QPS officer said that “You have to.”

The QPS officer again said that he wanted to hear about my matter whilst transporting me against my will and under severe duress under the Mental Health Act. I was not given any paperwork to support this detention, despite my multiple requests at later dates, I have still received no paperwork to evidence or support the supposedly legality of this detention. (Audio Reference 0846).

At this point, all choice and all human rights were taken away from me.

The QAS and QPS officers insisted that I sit on a gurney, in the full view of anyone in the caravan park and be strapped into it against my will. I explained that I did not require that. They said that I had to. The QAS and QPS officer shut me down when I said that I did not want to do that because it makes me look insane. It was very invasive.

Whilst I was in the ambulance, strapped to a gurney and being taken to hospital against my will, the QPS officer again tried to get me to talk and to “get my story”.

I told him that “I am happy to go into all of this - preferably not when I am strapped to a bed in an ambulance”. Despite this, he continued to attempt to talk to me about this matter. I had to say repeatedly that this was not the time. The QPS officer refused to accept this and continued to try to inappropriately question me at that time. The QPS officer asked me “When would you like to talk about this?” I replied “At any of the other times that I have attempted to talk to you.” I also informed him that “If I am here for a psychological assessment, then why do I have a police officer trying to question me?” The QPS officer continued to attempt to question me, despite my repeated requests for him to stop. This is gross harassment.

I asked the QAS officer present “Would you please ask him to stop trying to question me? This is completely inappropriate”. I should not have needed to ask this. If the QAS officer present was really concerned about my well being, he should not have allowed the QPS officer to be questioning me at that moment.

Improper Presence and Questioning by an employee of the QPS at Mareeba Hospital during and after I had been medicated against my will. At Mareeba Hospital, an unidentified police officer came into the room where I was being held. This police officer entered the room in a physically threatening manner along with 2 or 3 other people as if they were expecting me to physically resist taking a medication which it had been decided (without consultation with myself) that I was to be forced to take. This was inappropriate and illegal for the following reasons:

I had not been given the opportunity to take the medication (after being informed that physical force would be used if I did not do so),

I had not physically resisted being transported and detained by the QPS and QAS earlier that day,

I have no history of violence,

I weigh approximately 55kg.

There is no way that I would try to physically fight 3 or 4 people in such a situation.

The medical professionals present had no reason at all to suppose that I would require physical restraint.

After all of these people, including the unidentified police officer, had entered the room, it was explained to me that if I refused to take the medication, that the people present would use physical force to make me take the medication. There was no need for these people to come into the room in a physically threatening manner before the threat of physical force was explained to me. Why was this police officer present at all?

This officer of the QPS was a physically large and intimidating (in comparison to myself). Why was this police officer present for a private medical procedure, when I had previously been informed that the QPS were departing as they were no longer necessary? At some point, after I had been medicated against my will, the police officer partially identified himself as Sean (or Shaun).

Why was this man present at this time? Why did he not properly identify himself? Why was this police officer present during a private medical procedure, which I was not resisting in any way? Why did this officer attempt to talk to me and question me about my matter after I had been medicated against my will?

I informed this police officer about the behaviour of Constable Mitchell Patterson earlier that day, the fact that he had lied and the fact that the interaction was recorded. I asked him to take action on the matter. When I asked whether any action had been taken about this matter at the Mareeba Police Station weeks later, nothing had been done, despite the fact that I had since reported it to the Mareeba Police Station.

I also informed the police officer that my caravan was not secure and that I was concerned about it. He said that it wasn’t their policy to do anything about that.

Why are members of the QPS only willing to talk to me about this matter when I am being involuntarily and illegally detained and transported?
