KEY POINTS:
Two men will be sentenced in the High Court in Auckland next month after being convicted of attempting to pervert the course of justice in the Mt Maunganui police pack rape case.
Rene Gaustad Mangnus, 46, a company director, and Paul Grayden Turney, 49, a sound technician, conspired together to create a false affidavit in an appeal by fireman Warren Hales and businessman Peter McNamara against their rape convictions.
Hales and McNamara along with former policemen Bob Schollum and Brad Shipton were convicted in 2005 of raping a 20-year-old woman 16 years earlier.
The incident was described by Justice Ronald Young as "a pack rape in the worst sense".
