On the evening of the 1st of February, about 6.30pm through to the morning, early morning on Sunday the 1st or 2nd of February,
00:08
police will allege that two males, aged 27 years old, were involved in the spray painting of anti-Semitic messages
00:17
and their swastika symbol, both in Delkeith and also one in Dianella or Morley.
00:23
Those two males, two 27-year-old males, have now been charged with criminal damage.
00:28
They're charged with criminal damage in circumstances of racial aggravation.
00:33
I'm pleased to say that those laws in Western Australia carry a very significant penalty.
00:38
That's a 14-year imprisonment penalty.
00:40
It's obviously up to the courts to decide on penalties.
00:44
We have capabilities out there today to identify those who commit serious crimes such as this within hours.
00:51
We had the suspects within hours.
00:52
What we did over the next two and a half days was firm up the evidence against them.
00:58
We download devices.
00:59
We look at movements of vehicles and phones, forensics.
01:03
Everything was thrown at this because we know our community just does not tolerate this behaviour.
01:10
The most important part of this investigation for us was that our community stood up with everyone,
01:16
stood up with the entire community and stood up with those victims of this hate.
01:20
They helped us solve the crime.
01:22
Our community helped us solve the crime.
01:24
They came forward with their CCTV observations throughout the night.
01:29
In WA, we are very fortunate to have the capabilities that we have been given by government,
01:34
but we are even more fortunate to have a community that supports law and order
01:40
and attacks this hate immediately.
