Background
NZ Herald story here
Dominion Post story here
In summing up during the sentencing of killers of paedophile Glen Stinson, Justice Miller said no one had the right to take a life, no matter how despicable that person was. While the Trust does not condone violence in any way to any person, it is fair to say the deceased in this case was no loss to society and won't be missed.
