The six were not jailed and the charges were dropped.

Incident

The three boys, aged 12, 13, and 14, were ordered into a police car by the six officers in an inner city neighbourhood of Brisbane.[2] Each boy was driven in a separate patrol car to a swampy industrial area in Pinkenba, Queensland at 4 a.m.[3] The officers threatened to throw the boys into the swampy area, and referred to a place where people's fingers were cut off, in order to get them to comply with their demands. The boys were abandoned after their shoes were removed.[4] The boys later retrieved their shoes and began to walk home. They finished the journey in a taxi paid for by a security guard they met along the way.

Outcome
Police later admitted that the boys had not previously committed any crimes but were taken to deter them from committing any crimes or being a public nuisance.[citation needed]

Following an investigation by the Criminal Justice Commission, the Public Prosecutor laid charges against the police for deprivation of liberty. The charges were later dropped after a magistrate[5] found the boys agreed to go with the police officers.[6]
[7]

The decision drew criticism from many members of the community, the Aboriginal Legal Service (NSW/ACT), and the Queensland Council for Civil Liberties.[8][6] The case has been cited as an example of "the cultural and linguistic disadvantages faced by Aboriginal children in the courtroom in both the way that evidence is taken from them, and the way in which it is interpreted."[9][3]

One of the Pinkenba Six was Mark Ellis, who was a One Nation candidate in Queensland until his withdrawal in 2017

No one will vote for Dutton because he is a dodgy ex cop with no personality and he looks like an alien. Women and children must be terrified of him !!

As a kid I used to have nightmares about people who looked like that LOL

Well - did he kidnap and dump any White kids?

If I was their parents I would not be happy about it.

Coppers used to tweak ears & kick young blokes up the arse if they were hanging around where they shouldn't be as juveniles.

They'd take you home & you'd get a kick up the arse from your old man as well.

It didn't just happen to supposed Aboriginal juveniles.

Seems you're prepared to muck rake through history  to tip a bucket on a politician just to grandstand.

You could have done with a bit of that sort of policing - what do you want - another 3 years of Albosleazy?

And Albo is any different? Bloke talks through his teeth... never trust a boke that talks through his teeth.

Anyway no body gets to vote for the PM - just the local Federal member.

I'll be voting for the incumbent member for Wide Bay the LNPs Llew Obrien.

Labor and Albo have to Go.

Wanker - that's why we have a juvenile crime problem nationally.

How do you know whether he didn't do that to other juveniles roaming the streets?

So defeatist.

And here's you tipping a bucket on the LNP party leader and Prime Ministerial candidate.
