A woman has been arrested and charged with being an accessory after the fact to the murder of Michael James Thompson.
Thompson was shot dead in Hamilton on February 20 and a man was found guilty of his murder in the Hamilton District Court last week.
Detective Paul Van Der Zee said this morning officers arrested a 47-year-old woman at a Hamilton address and charged her with being an accessory after the fact to murder.
"This morning's arrest should serve as a warning to those aiding and abetting offenders that they can and will be held to account for their actions," he said.
