A Northland woman previously jailed for helping a police killer avoid arrest, and now facing a second breach of release conditions, has failed to show up at court.
Natalie Jane Bracken, 31, was scheduled to appear today in Kaitāia District Court to enter a plea to the breach charge.
But there was no sign of her. Judge Deidre Orchard issued a warrant to arrest.
Bracken was sentenced last October in the High Court at Auckland to 12-months imprisonment after being found guilty by a jury of being an accessory after the fact to an offence of wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
