I predict guilty

Just to annoy Grant I’ll bypass the legal system and make a prediction for the Donna Awatere-Huata trial. Now I have not heard all the evidence, but the Dominion Post has provided first class coverage through reporter David McLoughlin.

I will be amazed if Donna is not found guilty. Wi Huata might get off, but the prosecution’s case seems over-whelming and the only defence appesr to have been someone saying the SFO didn’t exclude the possibility someone else broke into the Huata’s place to generate fake invoices on their computer, plus a number of character witnesses saying Donna is a lovely person (she isn’t).

Cathy Odgers has her own perspective on Donna on her blog.
