Tokoroa Murder Trial Suddenly Discontinued | Auckland News

A murder trial in Tokoroa has been abruptly halted after just one week — Moetu Kaitai, 35, faces charges for allegedly shooting Kelvin Kana in May 2020. The prosecution claims she fired a modified shotgun during an argument in a garage, while her defense insists it was an act of self-defense meant to stop him from approaching. With a jury already selected and a three-week trial expected, the judge has sealed the reasons for the abrupt dismissal — but a new trial date is set for tomorrow. All eyes are now on what comes next. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
