The 7th of June, 2026 - Day 3 of Eileen and Marion Murray’s ‘Justice Ride’ across northern New South Wales. The Murray sisters’ aim is to bring attention to the ongoing epidemic of Aboriginal Deaths in Custody in ‘Australia’ and to demand justice for their brother, Eddie Murray, who they say was murdered by police in the small cotton farming town of Wee Waa in 1981
The third day of The Justice Ride saw a visit to Brewarrina where Eileen and Marion met with Warwick Clarke and Tina Murray, the parents of Kallan Murray, who was killed during a police pursuit in Bourke in 2024. Seventeen-year old Kallan and three other teenagers were in a stolen car that came off the road after police chased them across northern NSW and through Bourke. But Warwick and Tina say that the police reports of the incident don’t add up and that foul play was at work.
In Bourke, the Justice Riders and the family visited the scene where Kallan died. Wreckage of the crashed car still sits strewn across the ground, 16 months later, next to a memorial built by family.
A banner was then unfurled in front of Bourke police station and then later that day, in front of the Brewarrina police station.
The court case into Kallan's death has been delayed several times already but is expected to be heard later this year. The family are holding out for a proper independent investigation and for answers to their questions about what really happened on the day that they lost their son.
