Subscriber only The Mackay community is backing plans to better support its veteran community with an RSL social club and wellness retreat at Kinchant Dam.
Hub for our Heroes is raising the profile on the ambitious plans to find a place for returned service men and women to call their own while supporting them in civilian life. The campaign, through the Daily Mercury and Courier-Mail, is asking the Mackay region to get behind two projects, one of which is a social and welfare centre in town on the waterfront. The other is a wellness hub at Kinchant Dam that requires state and federal government support, and a feasibility study into the viability of the proposed model.

A six-month fact-finding investigation into the city s handling of the Daniel Prude case ultimately blames Mayor Lovely Warren for keeping the matter under wraps and concludes she then misled the public about what she knew, and when.
Few new details emerged in the 84-page final report. But special investigator Andrew Celli drew conclusions on who and what is to be believed.
He also concluded that former Police Chief La Ron Singletary downplayed, omitted details and misdirected city officials and the public; that city Corporation Counsel Tim Curtin similarly misled officials and the public about material information; and he widely faulted the administration for its handling of the case.

An investigation into the official response to Daniel Prude’s police suffocation death last year in Rochester, New York, is faulting the city’s mayor and former police chief for keeping critical details of the case secret for months and lying to the public about what they knew.
The report, commissioned by Rochester’s city council and made public Friday, said Mayor Lovely Warren lied at a September press conference when she said it wasn’t until August that she learned officers had physically restrained Prude during the March 23, 2020, arrest that led to his death.
Warren was told that very day that officers had used physical restraint, the report said, and by mid-April she, then-Police Chief La’Ron Singletary and other officials were aware Prude had died as a result and the officers were under criminal investigation.
