Paedophile murder-accused to stand trial
Tuesday, 05 February 2008
Three people charged with the murder of paedophile Glen Stinson are to stand trial in September.
Stinson's battered body was found dumped in the driveway of a poultry farm in Wylie Road, Foxton, in July last year.
Bruce Tamatea, 46, and Aubrey Harrison, 27, and a Palmerston North solo mother, 32, who has name suppression, are jointly charged with his murder.
Today the three were remanded for trial in the High Court at Palmerston North on September 1.
Stinson, 57, had a history of sex offences against young girls dating back to 1967.
He had been due to appear in Palmerston North District Court on charges that went back several years - including the attempted rape of a girl under 12.
