This Week on 3rd Degree – New Development in the Bain Case

MEDIA RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Tuesday 25 June, 2013


This Week on 3rd Degree – a Major New Development in the Bain Case


This week 3rd Degree features a major story from 2012 Journalist of the Year, Melanie Reid; a stunning new development in New Zealand’s biggest unsolved crime, the Bain case.

For 19 years the arguments have raged – was it David Bain who shot his entire family, or did his father Robin commit the murders before turning the gun on himself?

On Wednesday night at 8.30pm, Melanie Reid will unveil dramatic new evidence pointing to who loaded the murder weapon and pulled the trigger.

“It’s extraordinary that this has been missed for so long,” says Reid. “But there is no doubt that it was. As you’ll see on 3rd Degree, a number of experts have looked at this and a lot of testing has taken place. I think you’ll find it compelling.

“I'm sure many people will change their minds.”

Hosted by Duncan Garner and Guyon Espiner, 3rd Degree screens Wednesdays at 8.30pm on TV3.

In the NZ Herald, Audrey Young has compiled a useful list of the many, many ways that Luxon plans to roll back the progress made here over the past 40 years in race relations... More


 
 
Public Housing Futures: Christmas Comes Early For Landlords

New CTU analysis of the National & ACT coalition agreement has shown the cost of returning interest deductibility to landlords is an extra $900M on top of National’s original proposal. This is because it is going to be implemented earlier and faster, including retrospective rebates from April 2023. More


Green Party: Petition To Save Oil & Gas Ban

“The new Government’s plan to expand oil and gas exploration is as dangerous as it is unscientific. Whatever you think about the new government, there is simply no mandate to trash the climate. We need to come together to stop them,” says James Shaw. More

PSA: MFAT Must Reverse Decision To Remove Te Reo

MFAT's decision to remove te reo from correspondence before new Ministers are sworn in risks undermining the important progress the public sector has made in honouring te Tiriti. "We are very disappointed in what is a backward decision - it simply seems to be a Ministry bowing to the racist rhetoric we heard on the election campaign trail," says Marcia Puru.
