A heartbreaking inquest is unraveling the tragic death of 13-year-old Budda Spencer, who died after sleeping in an industrial skip bin in Port Lincoln — while two younger boys with him survived unharmed. Found missing for five days, Budda had been seen at youth events and even slept on a football oval grandstand, briefly located by police before running away. He’d confided that his home life was unsafe, and the night before his death, he and his friends were reported missing. The investigation now scrutinizes whether child protection and other agencies provided adequate support — with testimony expected from key organizations — as the court seeks to answer: what could have been done differently to save his life?
