GREER, Tina

32y · Female·Unknown

Tina Louise Greer, 32, disappeared on 18 January 2012 and is presumed deceased, killed by her partner Leslie Sharman who was involved in her coercive and controlling relationship, including domestic violence. The coroner found inadequate responses by Queensland Police (poor investigation of three DV incidents in 2010, failure to recognise pattern of abuse, lack of DVO applications despite legislative requirements), Salvation Army Fairhaven (failure to refer Tina to DV support services despite her clear disclosures of abuse), and Department of Child Safety (failure to assess DV risk adequately when Lili self-placed with Tina in 2011, lack of holistic assessment despite awareness of DV pattern). While preventative interventions cannot be confirmed to have altered the fatal outcome, the inquest identified systemic failures in recognising and protecting a domestic violence victim. Clinical and procedural lessons centre on integrated DV training, victim-centred care, holistic risk assessment, and inter-agency communication.
