The jury in the Louise
Nicholas historical rape trial has retired for the night. There's still no verdict
on allegations that a top policeman and two former colleagues raped the
Rotorua woman 20 years ago. Family and friends of
the three accused have continued to support each other through what seems a
torturous wait. The jury has now been
deliberating for almost 21 hours. Supporters shared more
prayers and waiata tonight as the jurors took a dinner break of more than
three hours, only to return and call it a night. Deliberations are
scheduled to resume at 9am tomorrow. |
