"Kiwi jihadi" feels "stabbed in the back"...

[husaberg]

That seems a bit too good for him.

If the Crown play it smart they will only present the video footage against him as it wont be able to be released in news feeds
That way he cant really defend himself by spends hours cross examining the whitnesses etc and feed off the publicity of a long trial.

Maybe he'll get NZ's first 50 consecutive life sentences in one court case ...

do you think the police could manage the paperwork for that number?

I wouldn't bother, seriously why give him the notoriety, just charge him with one death. Then seek preventative detention pretty sure the government can make a spree killer life means life sentence.

They need to give him permanent name suppression too.

Might not be a Police issue as such ...

I was talking to an actual lawyer the other day (i.e. one who does Court work in the criminal jurisdiction) and apparently the asshole won't be allowed to cross examine any witnesses. Any cross will be done by a lawyer acting as amicus - its to stop (for example) sick twisted fuckers representing themselves in sex offence cases from getting their jollies again by cross examining a victim. Personally I think the asshole should be remanded in general population in Paremoremo or to share a cell with Graham Burton... problem solved in less than two weeks I reckon.

Wasnt that exactly what that sick nut from Dunedin who killed Sophie Elliot was allowed to do at the trial?

Burtons out ?
Surprised he hasn’t offered to represent the shooter actually, seems like the kind of publicity he usually craves.

Nah he is in the maxi security part of Paremoremo. Notwithstanding the leg thing, he's been convicted of attempted murder twice since being jailed for the murder of Karl Kuchenbecker. (sp)

Maybe that was the driver for the lor change? Not my area but that seems reasonable.

[Madness]

Pffftt! Burton’s nothing more than a fat crackhead pussy. Put the shooter in with George Baker and tell George the guy’s a nark.

They got rid of the provocation defense as a result of so maybe i got that confused, for some reason i thought he defended himself but looking at the details he didnt.

i remember there was one guy who used representing himself to further grandstand and torment the family.
