Gregory Richard Hall
was convicted by the jury at the Auckland District Court of assaulting
student Hayden Graham Seath in the back of a police car at Albany in November
2000. However, he was cleared
of assaulting Mr Seath earlier in the carpark of the Bull and Gate pub in
Albany. His colleague,
Christopher Geoffrey James Wharton, was cleared of four charges of assaulting
Mr Seath. The jury was hung on a
fifth assault charge against Wharton. A retrial was ordered
on that count. Hall is to be sentenced
by Judge Fred McElrea at the end of next month. |
