Around Australia an estimated 700 people who have been charged but not convicted of crimes are being detained in the forensic system, many indefinitely.

In some of the most extreme cases, they’re locked up for years in solitary confinement with no release date.

They are living with disabilities and mental illness, and some have been determined too great a risk to live in the community because of their history of violence and complex behaviour.

For the first time, forensic patients and their families are speaking out, and Four Corners reveals allegations of torture and mistreatment.

Originally broadcast as 'Trapped’ on ABC TV and ABC iview on 16 October 2023.

Four Corners is Australia’s premier investigations documentary series.
