A First Nations woman who died in custody on Christmas Eve had complained of severe migraines in the weeks before she was taken to hospital, her partner says.

There have been 516 Indigenous deaths in custody between the royal commission handing down its report in 1991 and June 2022, according to the Australian Institute of Criminology.
