Palm Island resident, Lex Wotton, is facing charges of ‘riot with destruction’ – a charge that could lead to a jail sentence of more than 10 years. His trial commenced in Brisbane on April 7, 2008.
With 400 others Lex participated in the November 2004 protest against the killing of his friend Mulrunji in the Palm Island watch house while in police custody.
