DYLAN Voller’s sister Kirra Voller, 26, will undertake unpaid community work after pleading guilty to charges stemming from an incident in which she vandalised a local courthouse, police station and multiple police vehicles with anti-police graffiti.

The court heard on June 18, Voller was drinking at Uncles Tavern with four others before carrying out a “graffiti attack” on the courthouse where she painted the acronyms “BLM” (Black Lives Matter) and “FTP” (f**k the police), and on the bonnet of a marked police vehicle in pink spray paint, which was captured on CCTV.

She also tipped red paint on two other marked police vehicles, and the police station retaining wall.

Defence lawyer Tania Collins said the behaviour was inspired after Voller tried to interject during an arrest where police were in attendance at Uncles Tavern.

Ms Collins said Voller had been “self-medicating” anxiety and depression with alcohol.

“She reflects on this time and was drinking quite a bit of alcohol,” she said.

“The offending also occurred in the context of an anniversary of a Four Corners (ABC) program in relation to information about her brother and his treatment while in Don Dale.”

She said Voller was “an extremely talented musician” who had been employed over the past six years with Music NT, and was an “active and productive member of the community for a significant matter of time, but has suffered depression and anxiety and post-traumatic stress”.

“Self-medicating as she was in June … led her to take out her anger and frustration in a nonproductive way,” Ms Collins said.

The court heard Voller caused $1820 in property damage.

During sentencing, Judge David Bamber said Voller would become liable in paying back for the damage.

“I accept you were under stress at the time and various matters entered your mindset to get you to get involved in damaging the property, but it is a nuisance and it does cost money,” he said.
