During the week a 95 year old woman, suffering with dementia, was tasered by police in her nursing home. The whole country was shocked. 

Now there are questions. Questions about what's going to happen go the officer involved. Questions surrounding the conduct of police. Questions about what happens now that a family had to say goodbye to their beloved gran.

In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to a former magistrate about whether he's seen anything like this in his career and what we should learn about how Australia treats its ageing population and how police should be accountable for their actions.
