ABC statement

On April 13, the night of the tragic stabbing at Bondi Junction in Sydney ABC News channel inadvertently broadcast images of one of the victims - Jade Young - taken at the scene. We acknowledge those images were graphic and inappropriate. ABC News is deeply sorry about that. A decision had been made to either blur images like those, or not broadcast them at all. Unfortunately, in this instance that process failed and the videos were shown before they were blurred.

It was an error of judgement for which we take full responsibility. The ABC apologises to Jade’s family and to anyone else who was distressed by the images.
