Really want to know?
NZers do not talk to the media. Something about the national psyche I guess. They particularly double-plus-don't talk when a recording device is involved. The very few who are willing to be quoted on the record are, therefore, usually complete fucking weirdos.
Oh, and in that kind of situation all the actually useful witnesses have been spoken to by the cops (being witnesses, after all) and as part of that process are generally asked if they wouldn't mind ever so much not talking to the media.
The media, in a nutshell, get the dregs.
