The Greens in New South Wales are pushing for a ban on police using sniffer dogs in public spaces. They claim it violates civil liberties. In a separate incident, a five-year-old boy was found dead in a home, allegedly duct-taped into a sleeping bag and blindfolded. The case has raised concerns about child safety. Other news includes updates on public safety in the Northern Beaches and Albury Wodonga, as well as a case where a teen's sentence was reduced following an appeal. The outcome has sparked discussions about justice.
