Trigg Ave death: Murder-accused, two other defendants lose name suppression

  • November 3, 2025

Interim name suppression of two others charged has also lapsed.

Deziah Rangitoheriri, 19, and Tamehana Karaitiana-Rangitoheriri, 20, also of Rotorua, have pleaded not guilty to assault with intent to injure and two counts of possession of an offensive weapon.

A 65-year-old man has had charges of possession of an offensive weapon and assault dismissed.

All three still facing charges are set to reappear in the High Court at Rotorua for a case review hearing on November 21.

A reserve trial date has been set for October 4, 2027, in the High Court at Hamilton.

A firm trial date has been set for May 22, 2028.
