A homicide investigation was launched last month after the 3-year-old’s death on 21 May 2025.
Detective Senior Sergeant Christan Fouhy, of Far North CIB, says Police have made a second arrest in the case.
“A 31-year-old woman appeared in the Kaikohe District Court today,” he says.
“Police have charged this woman with neglect and fraud related offences.”
The woman has been remanded in custody to reappear on 15 July 2025.
Detective Senior Sergeant Fouhy says further comment is limited given two people are now before the Court in this case.
