Ex-accused on track
Nick Wills' law degree cost more than the usual blood, sweat and
tears. Nearly three years ago his legal future was nearly destroyed by a
fellow student's false accusation of rape. Yesterday he was back in court but
the outlook was not nearly as grim. Mr Wills was admitted as a barrister and
solicitor of the High Court. A friend and mentor, Hamilton lawyer Warren Scotter, was by his
former client's side and moved his admission to the Bar. Mr Wills was a 22-year-old
science graduate embarking on his second degree at Waikato University
when he was accused of a brutal rape in 1995.
