It's really polarised the population': amid a police search for Dezi Freeman's helpers, some sympathy towards the double-murderer remains
"The manhunt was one of the biggest in Australian history, involving hundreds of police officers and help from the army. And yet one man, on foot, got away."
"If anyone was complicit, they will be held to account. We will track backwards from here to work out how long he's been here, and who helped him to be here."
"When the police asked if she would tell them if she saw him, she says, she answered honestly. My answer was no, she says. I wouldn't call them."
Dezi Freeman was shot dead by police after a seven-month manhunt following the alleged killing of two police officers. The manhunt was extensive, involving hundreds of officers and military assistance. Some community members celebrate his death, while others express sympathy and disbelief. Police believe Freeman had assistance during his time on the run, and they are investigating potential accomplices. A friend of Freeman stated she would not inform police if she saw him, indicating a divide in community sentiment regarding his actions.
