WARNING: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander viewers are warned that the following images may contain images of deceased persons.
"The footprints had given the impression [the teen] had been wandering in circles and it was thought that due to his mental impairment, dehydration and environmental conditions, [he'd been] unable to get out of the mangroves."
Searchers spotted a large saltwater crocodile a short distance from where the boy's body was found, while helicopter pilots sighted at least nine of the predators in the wider search area.
His mother started legal action against the Department for Child Protection, claiming it had been negligent in its care.
In loving memory of Hubert Stumpagee.
My gratitude to the family who gave me the permission to photograph Hubert's funeral.
