John MacKenzie chats with Ian leavers, President and CEO of the Queensland Police Union about "Jack's Law" and metal detection wands being introduced in Cairns.After a successful trial period in the Gold Coast, metal detection wanding will be expanded to other areas around Queensland.Some academics argue that wanding will not deter stabbings or youths from carrying knives, however, the trial has seen over 650 convictions and has already saved lives."Jacks Law" was established in response to the stabbing of Gold Coast teenager, Jack Beasley, in 2019.
