case/missing Swedes

Dear New Zealand Police,

 

I would like a copy please of all the following items pertaining to the
murder of Urban Hoglin and Heidi Paakanon.  I would like all the witness
statements of the following people:

David Tamihere

Donald Snr Turner and his partner Glenys James Turner & his girlfirend at
the time David Turner & his girlfirend at the time Donald Jnr Turner & his
girlfriend at the time being Christine Darren Lindsay statement.

All photos you hold in relation to the Turner family and all photos of the
Swedes car.

 

As a member of the Thames and Coromandel community all my life. And the
dialogue around the disappearance.  It is paramount that the Turner family
and their associates at the time are taken under an official questioning
process as they have admitted to doing harm to Heidi Urban.  It is very
difficult for me as a mother raising children with one wanting to be in
the POLICE force and having a grandfather in the POLICE force, that a
living member in this community still walks the streets having raped and
murdered two people and has got away with it for so long. David Turner is
guilty. I am loosing faith in the our POLICE.  And thats really really
sad. Sad to raise my children knowing that and doubting my confidence that
my son will be heading into a reputable profession.

 

Yours faithfully,

Larina Jones
