Supporting our Victorian policing community in times of trauma
Sunday, 29 March, 2026
In breaking news this morning police have shot dead fugitive gunman Dezi Freeman in Victoria's north-east. Freeman had been on the run for seven months, and was wanted for the fatal shootings of Detective Leading Senior Constable Neal Thompson and Senior Constable Vadim De Waart-Hottart. Bringing back memories of the tragic day of losing the officers, in this edition of The Conversation Hour we discuss the emotional impact of the shooting on the police force, and reflect on what support could and should be offered to police community in the wake of traumatic events.Also in this edition, a month of free public transport sounds like good news but what will it mean for people who live in regional Victoria and particularly those that rely on the V-Line service? Plus, Kylie Minogue is set to headline the AFL grand final entertainment, and while many are celebrating the announcement as being great for Australian music others say the gig should go to emerging artists.
