#RoboDebtRC As Jenny Miller is about to give evidence, let’s remember her longstanding fight for justice for her son Rhys, which is well known. Whilst it doesn’t end today, this would be a big one. So much courage, so much love, we stand with Jenny Miller, the greatest mum. ❤️😢 
It is our star witness, Jenny Miller. It’s been a long road to get here. Let’s stand with her on this one.

Jenny confirms its been a long 6 year battle. She starts to tell how police arrived at her home at around 3am to deliver news that her son had passed.
She was living in QLD at the time, her son was originally from Cairns but lived in Melbourne at the time of his death.

This is powerful testimony from Jennifer Miller, on behalf of her beautiful boy, Rhys Cauzzo! So brave of her to front the court today & advocate on behalf of him & other vulnerable #RoboDebt victims. #Auspol
PS We believe that has Jenny received Centrelink RoboDebt notices.

So many gut-wrenching & poignant testimonies from victims & loved ones today. It's been a sad honour for #NotMyDebt volunteers to get to know Jennifer Miller, Kath Madgwick & countless others as they've navigated this deliberately cruel & oppressive reverse-onus #RoboDebt scheme.
Proposed settlement is discriminatory & total sum is insufficient. Morrison Govt can end this legal impasse & stop this terrible emotional rollercoaster for all Class Action victims, by simply drawing a line under the scheme by wiping & refunding all #RoboDebts forthwith. #Auspol
So, everyone has been talking about this 776 figure and how bad it is
I wanted to figure out some point of reference as to how bad it might actually be #notmydebt #Robodebt 1/

The number comes from a Department of Human Services report that you can access here: aph.gov.au/api/qon/downlo…
The specific figure is 776 deaths for people aged under 45 in a population of ~410,000 debt notices 2/

This means that the rate of death for people aged 45 or below as a proportion of the total sample is 776/410000 = 0.002 = 0.2%

Answer to Estimates QoN: Deceased People.
How many people have died after being hit with a #robodebt?
And who died?
There's a lot they're not saying, but these few small tables still say a lot.

663 of the #robodebt victims who have died were or had been marked as vulnerable.
That's 32%.
It was claimed at one point that vulnerable persons were not being targeted.

While slightly more women are issued a #robodebt than men (145K : 137K), more than twice the number of men have died after receiving a robodebt.
