A jury hearing the
trial of a Horowhenua school teacher charged with indecent assault will
revisit video evidence from one of the complainants this morning. The trial of Michael
Neville is being held at the Palmerston North District Court. The jury of ten women
and two men was out for seven hours before retiring late last night. Neville is accused of
indecently touching four pupils he was teaching. The jury has requested
to see the videotaped evidence of one complainant again and the transcript of
the cross examination of the same girl will be read to them this morning. The girl's account is
central to the Crown's case. |
