From The Press
In 1997, Nelson CIB head Wayne McCoy investigated a shocking forerunner to the Bamborough murder. Westport man Hemi Hutley, 23, a scrappy rugby halfback, was beaten unconscious in a pub fight by Fourth Reichers Neihana Foster and Aaron Howie. They dragged Hutley 125m over wasteland, stripped him, and threw him in the Buller River, where he drowned. Half-Maori Foster confirmed to police he was committed to the white power cause. "He said his heart was white because his father was a white person," McCoy told the Bamborough jury.
