Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua karanga te kaitiaki reti, a Alan Barnes kia tukuna tana kaiwhai ki te whare herehere ina whakawakia ia i tenei wiki. Ko Richard Gatiss, he matapo, 4ft 6in, i patu i a Mr Barnes ki te whenua i waho o tona whare i Gateshead, Tyne and Wear i roto i tētahi whakaeke pōhēhē i ohorere ai a Britain i te tīmatanga o tēnei tau. Ka kitea e te kai tarukino a Gatiss tana whiu ina tae atu ia ki te aroaro o te kaiwhakawa i te Kooti Karauna o Newcastle i te Rāhoroi i muri i tana whakaae he hara ia mo te whakaeke me te whakaaro ki te tahae. Panuku ki raro mō te ataata. Kua karanga a Alan Barnes, i whakaekehia ki waho o tona whare i te marama o Hanuere, kia herea tana kaiwhai. I karanga a Mr Barnes i tenei ra kia kite a Gatiss, i puritia nei i muri i nga mekameka mo tona ake haumaru, i te taumaha katoa o te ture. I kii ia ki a ITV's This Morning: 'Me haere ia ki te whare herehere, na te mea kaore pea ka mahia e ia ki tetahi atu. Tērā pea ka kino ake te mahi a tētahi atu ki a ia i te mea i pa ki ahau.' Ko te 67-tau te pakeke, i whanau mai me nga raru o te tipu i muri i te mate o tona whaea i te mate German i a ia e hapu ana, i kii ia kaore ia i whakapono ki nga mihi a Gatiss kua roa. Ka mea ia: 'Ehara [i te rerekētanga] nā te mea he mea māmā ki te tangata te kī i tērā, engari ka mahi tonu ki tētahi atu i muri mai, nō reira e hiahia ana ahau kia whai te ture i tōna ara.' Neke atu i te £330,000 i kohia hei āwhina i a Mr Barnes i muri i te haerenga o ngā taipitopito o te mea i pa ki a ia puta noa i te ao. I tēnei rā, e noho ana ki te kaitiaki whakapaipai o te rohe, a Katie Cutler, nāna i whakarite te kaupapa kohikohi pūtea, ka kī mai ia ka hoko whare hōu ia. Kua whakaae a Richard Gatiss, he kaipupuri tarukino i runga i te ture, ki te whakaekenga pōhēhē, ā, ka whiua i tēnei wiki. Ka mea a Mr Barnes: 'Ko te hawhe o te haere i runga i te whare, a ka whakamahi ahau i te toenga mo te ora i runga i. Mā tēnei e ora ai mātou.' I a ia e korero ana i tona koa ki te neke atu i te rohe i whakaekehia ai ia, ka tapiritia e ia: 'I te wa i whakatika ai ahau, i tino mohio ahau kaore e taea e au te noho ki konei.' I tētahi whakarongo i te tīmatanga o tēnei marama, i kī te Kaiwhakawā a Paora Sloan QC ki a Gatiss ka puritia tonu ia i roto i te whare herehere, ā, 'he tino pai te whiu o te whare herehere...
