Disabled children kept in cage: report

Disabled children were kept in a cage as punishment at a Queensland facility, a report has claimed.

Wednesday's edition of The Bulletin magazine said mentally and physically disabled people were locked in cages and threatened with broom handles.

The abuse involved both children and adults in five residential lodges run by a private association one hour north of Brisbane, said investigative journalist Bob Bottom.

Apparently even in Australia there are dirty assholes who should not walk among society. I say keep the people responsible and lock them in cages and humiliate them too. Boy, these type of stories anger me!

Just for having such a ludicrous name and still working as an investigative journalist!
