Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  He tane marena hou i tīmata i tētahi whawhai nui i tōna pō marena mā te kī atu ki ngā tama taiohi e toru ka taea e ia te 'whakamate i a rātau ki te patu kotahi' kua herea mō ngā tau e toru. Ko John Derick Sandham, 31 tau, i tana huihuinga i tetahi whare inu i Holywell, Flintshire, i te wa i whakaekea ai e ia tetahi roopu hoa taiohi e inu ana i te waahi. I rongo te kōti i te āhua o Sandham, nāna i whakawhiti i ngā kupu oati ki tana wahine a Clare i ētahi haora noa iho i mua, i patu i tētahi o ngā patunga i mua i te patu i a ia ki te mata ki tētahi karaihe, ki tētahi pounamu rānei. Kua mauheretia a John Derick Sandham, 31 (i te taha maui me tana wahine a Clare me te taha matau) mo nga tau e toru i muri i te whakaoho i tetahi pakanga i tana huihuinga marena i tetahi whare karakia i Holywell, Flintshire, i Akuhata 2013. Ko Sandham, nana nei i whakawhiti i nga kupu whakaari me tana wahine a Clare i etahi haora i mua ake nei (i whakaahuatia), i whakaekea e ia nga teeangers e toru, ka patu i te upoko o tetahi patunga i mua i te patu i tetahi atu i te mata me te karaihe, i te pounamu ranei. Kātahi ka hopu ia i tētahi atu o ngā taiohi i te korokoro, i mua i te patu i te tuatoru o ngā patunga i muri o te mahunga, i korerotia ki te Kooti Karauna o Mold. I puta mai i muri i tana korero ki te tokotoru ka taea e ia te patu i a raatau me te patu kotahi. I kii a Sandham i mahi ia hei tiaki i a ia ano, e kii ana ki te kooti: 'Ko taku po marena tenei. Ko te tikanga koinei te rā tino harikoa o toku ora, ā, kua whakangaromia e tēnei.' Engari i kitea ia he hara mo nga whakaeke e toru, a, i whiua ki te toru tau ki te whare herehere. I a ia e whakahe ana i a Sandham, ka mea te Kai-whakawa, a Philip Hughes: 'He tukino i nga taiohi i runga i te haurangi, kaore i mahia e ratou tetahi mea hei whakatika i to riri ki a ratou.' I rongo te kōti i te āhua o te whawhai i te marama o Akuhata 2013 i te wā e 100 ngā hoa me te whānau e tohu ana i te marena i te Abbott's Arms i Holywell, North Wales. I kī te whakawā (i te taha mauī me te taha matau) i te tiaki whaiaro engari i kitea ia e hara ana ki ngā whakaeke e toru, ā, i whiua ki te toru tau ki te whare herehere. Ko nga patunga, e 16 me te 17 tau te pakeke, ehara i te mema o te hui marena. I rongo te kōti i te āhua o te take i puta ai a Sandham ki waho i te mutunga o te pō ki te 'whakahau atu' ki tana...
I marenatia a John Sandham, 31, me tana wahine a Clare i Holywell, Flintshire i te tau 2013. I ngā haora i muri mai, ka whakaekea e ia ngā taiohi e inu ana i te wāhi o te pōwhiri a te tokorua. I rongo te marae i a Sandham e patu ana i ona patunga, e patu ana, e patu ana i ona patunga. I mauheretia a Sandham ki te Kooti Karauna o Mold i muri i tana whiunga mo nga mahi whakaeke e toru.
