OPINION:

Senseless killing, crazy trial, one verdict that satisfied the public but was reached in a complicated, reluctant manner and another verdict that punished a bystander who initially acted heroically. The case of the murdered policeman was strange from beginning to end. It will continue to resonate for a long while beyond the High Court of Auckland, where the trial of Eli Epiha and Natalie Bracken was held these past three weeks, a jury finding both guilty on Tuesday afternoon.
