Her sister Kyanne Pryor told the newspaper that she was the victim of racist taunts and bullying.

‘There was racism involved — a lot of the time it was just random people who don’t realise what they’re saying.’

Tragically, Ms Pyror is the fifth Indigenous girl in Australia to die by suicide this year alone.
