Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  He whakahau ā-wā e te kaiwhakawa o te Kooti Nui e ārai ana i tētahi tangata i te momi hikareti i roto i tōna kāinga i te Takiwa o Columbia - ahakoa he tino ture. E ai ki ngā pūrongo a WJLA-TV, ko ngā hoa noho o Edwin Gray ki te raki-rawhiti o Washington kua tono i tētahi kerēme ā-iwi e kī ana kei te whara rātau i te paowa e rere ana ki roto i tō rātau kāinga mā tētahi poka i te rūma. I neke atu te whānau ki te kāinga i te taha o Gray i te tau kua hipa, ā, kotahi tā rātau tamaiti, ā, ko tētahi atu kei te haere mai. Kāore e whakaaetia te momi hikareti: Kua whakahaua a Edwin Gray kia kaua e momi hikareti i roto i tōna whare, nā tōna whānau i whiwhi mō ngā tau 50 kua hipa. Nga amuamu: I whakahaua te whakahau ā-wāhi e te kaiwhakawa o te Kooti Nui i muri i te kerēme a tētahi o ngā hoa noho o Gray i te raki-rawhiti o Washington, DC e kī ana kei te rere te paowa ki roto i to rātau kāinga. I tukuna e te kaiwhakawa he mana ā-wā i te wiki kua hipa, e mea ana kia kaua a Gray, ōna whānau, ōna manuhiri rānei, e momi hikareti i roto i te kāinga, nā te whānau nei, i 50 tau. Kua oati te whānau ki te whawhai ki te ture. I roto i ngā pūrongo a te kōti me tētahi tauākī, e kī ana ngā kaitiaki i whakamātau rātou ki te mahi tahi me Gray me tōna tuahine a Mozella Johnson, engari kāore i angitu ngā whakamātau takawaenga, ā, i whakatau rātau ki te tuku i te kerēme. 'E hiahia ana koe ki ahau ki te mutu te mea i ahau i te mahi i roto i toku whare, toku ora katoa,' ka mea a Gray. I tua atu i te tono kia whakamutua te momi hikareti i te whare, e tono ana hoki nga hoa noho ki te $500,000 hei utu. Ko te kerēme e whakatū ana i tētahi tauira mō ētahi atu amuamu i te rohe o DC. I kii tetahi kaituhi mo te Washington Post ka taea e te whakawa a Gray te arahi ki nga rau atu, mai i nga hoa noho e tumanako ana ki te whakahaere i nga mahi a etahi atu kainoho. 'I miharo matou,' e ai ki te tuahine o Gray, a Johnson. 'Mēnā kua mahia e tēnei kaiwhakawa, ko wai te mea e whai ake nei? Ko tehea atu hoa tata ka whai ake?'
Kua whakahaua e tētahi kaiwhakawa o te Kooti Nui a Edwin Gray me te toenga o tōna whānau kia mutu te momi hikareti i roto i to rātau kāinga i Washington, DC. Ko te whakataunga i puta mai i tētahi kerēme kei te whakawakia e ngā hoa noho hou o Gray, e kī ana kei te whara rātau i te paowa.
