Staff stated that the 95-pound, 5'2" lady was armed after stealing a knife from the kitchen, and police were called to the residence. Authorities revealed that Officer White had been charged with careless causing great bodily harm, assault causing great bodily harm, and common assault hours before she passed away.

He will, however, probably be charged with more serious offences in connection with Nowland's passing. White had previously been placed on paid leave. On June 5, he is expected to show up in court. When lives are in danger, police officers in Australia are permitted to use stun guns.

There is no publicly available body camera footage of White and the other cop present at the scene. Karen Webb, the commissioner of the NSW Police, declared that she had not yet viewed the video and that, until the inquiry was over, she would maintain her secrecy.

v her family have a right to expect this to be done properly. It will take time, said Webb. "We need to make sure that everything we say [doesn't] jeopardise the investigation and that the officers involved in this matter have a fair trial."
