Charlie, who was pronounced dead a short time later, had injuries from his head to his feet, including broken bones, third-degree burns, internal bleeding and bruising. Photograph: David Dare Parkerīell had baby Charlie for about 15 hours before he turned up at the Fortescue Roadhouse in Karratha about 1,000km away. Tamica Mullaley’s tattoo of Charlie’s name, birthday and the date he was murdered. A later investigation by the crime and corruption commission (CCC) found the police took nine hours to act on the information. In the hours that followed, Ted Mullaley went to the Broome police station several times, telling them Bell had threatened to kill the baby and asking them to begin a search. A short time later, Bell, who was not his father, returned and took him.
Police left baby Charlie with others at the scene while they took Tamica Mullaley into custody. It was later found she had suffered a ruptured kidney and lacerated spleen in the beating from Bell. Police agreed to take Tamica Mullaley to hospital rather than the station, but transported her handcuffed in the police van. When Ted Mullaley arrived to help his daughter, he was charged with obstructing arrest. Police then arrested a bloody and injured Tamica Mullaley who they alleged was abusive towards them. Police were called, but by the time they arrived Bell had fled the scene. In March 2013, then 26-year-old Tamica Mullaley was punched, and left naked and bleeding by the side of the road in Broome by her violent partner, Bell. Tamica Mullaley says her family can now start to heal.
