Six Years for Planned Store Heist

John Tautari, 24, just got six years and five months for masterminding a violent, daylight electronics store robbery in Waipapa — where his crew, armed with a shotgun and tomahawk, stole $15K worth of gear and left a staff member injured. As the getaway driver, Tautari knew exactly what was happening, and despite claiming ignorance of the weapons, the judge ruled he was fully responsible. With no youth discount and unrecovered loot, this is part of a broader crackdown — including his relative Bruce Tautari’s recent sentence — sending a clear message: planned armed robberies won’t be tolerated.
