Three days after Ramsay shot at their house, she returned and fired more shots into the property. <\/p>\n

The first time, the woman heard the shots, and thinking she was going to be killed, ran with her baby to the bathroom and jumped into the bathtub. <\/p>\n

The second time Ramsay shot at the house, a bullet pierced<\/a> the kitchen window before landing in a wall 10 metres away. <\/p>\n

This month, Ramsay appeared in the Hamilton District Court for sentencing on shooting and fraud charges.<\/p>\n

The court heard she would \u201cbuy\u201d vehicles from people through Facebook, by showing them a fake money transfer. <\/p>\n

The fraud left some victims having to pay off vehicles they no longer owned.<\/p>\n

The victims whose house Ramsay shot at were further impacted by having to move, out of fear that she would return. <\/p>\n

Ramsay also admitted drug offending charges, and trying to smuggle drugs and cigarettes to her Mongrel Mob member father, Clayton Wilson<\/a>, in Whanganui prison. <\/p>\n

\u2018Loaded, cocked, and ready to fire\u2019<\/p>\n

The court heard Ramsay\u2019s offending started in October last year. <\/p>\n

After adopting various aliases, including \u201cJus Tash\u201d, \u201cYukno Yurit\u201d, \u201cPaul White\u201d, and \u201cMarjorityy Rulezz\u201d, she contacted victims who had vehicles for sale on Facebook.<\/p>\n

She visited their homes and bought the vehicles by showing a fake money transfer, which appeared to the victims that the payment had been sent to their bank accounts.<\/p>\n

Ramsay would drive off in their vehicles and ignore the victims\u2019 attempts to contact her once they realised they had been duped. <\/p>\n

On February 2, Ramsay went to a victim\u2019s home, driving a Ford Ranger she\u2019d just stolen, to buy the victim\u2019s Honda TRX quad bike for $4500. <\/p>\n

While \u201cwaiting for the money to clear\u201d, she asked the victim to help him load the bike on the ute, then took off.<\/p>\n

Ramsay\u2019s most serious offending was the shooting.<\/p>\n

She and an unknown associate met with the young mum and her partner and negotiated a sale price of $32,000 for his vehicle. <\/p>\n

Ramsay told him she\u2019d transferred the money and sent him a screenshot as confirmation of payment, but explained there would be a delay as he was with a different bank.<\/p>\n

She then drove off in the ute.<\/p>\n

Soon after, he made a Facebook post warning others of Ramsay\u2019s behaviour.<\/p>\n

On February 12, as the victim was in Huntly looking for his ute, he spotted Ramsay\u2019s vehicle parked outside some shops.<\/p>\n

He confronted her, recording her, but she denied being Pashion Ramsay and drove off.<\/p>\n

The following day, the victim and his partner were home with their three-week-old daughter. <\/p>\n

Ramsay drove past and fired three shots from her moving vehicle.<\/p>\n

One shot pierced the living room window, narrowly missing his partner, who was sitting on the couch feeding their child.<\/p>\n

Three days later, Ramsay drove past again, firing another shot into the house, which went through the kitchen window, travelling about 10m before hitting a wall.<\/p>\n

Police arrested her the next day and found a .22 rifle in her car, \u201cloaded, cocked and ready to fire\u201d. <\/p>\n

There was also .22 ammunition in the driver\u2019s door armrest and centre console.<\/p>\n

A Gucci bag that was being held by a young relative of Ramsay\u2019s had Ramsay\u2019s driver\u2019s licence, cash, meth, and more .22 ammunition.<\/p>\n

\u201812g meth, 28g cannabis, tobacco and a cellphone\u2019<\/p>\n

In relation to the Whanganui prison smuggling attempt, Ramsay had admitted conspiring with her father and another woman to take in cannabis, a cellphone and tobacco.<\/p>\n

During conversations, Ramsay and her father, Clayton Wilson<\/a>, spoke of meth, cannabis, and cellphones using the code words, \u201cnanny Sonja\u2019s\u201d, \u201cEvo bumpers\u201d, and \u201ccar parts\u201d.<\/p>\n

Wilson told Ramsay what he wanted her to organise, including the logistics of the contraband and sorting payments. <\/p>\n

Ramsay then got a 43-year-old female associate to take it in.<\/p>\n

However, greeting her on arrival was a drug dog, which, unsurprisingly, indicated she had drugs. <\/p>\n

Seven separate packages were found, which included 12.6g of meth, 28g of cannabis bud, a cellphone, and four packets of tobacco.<\/p>\n

\u2018Extremely traumatic and humiliating\u2019<\/p>\n

In court, Ramsay\u2019s counsel, Gerard Walsh, urged the judge to issue a decent discount for his client\u2019s upbringing, stating her parents \u201cdidn\u2019t help matters\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s an understatement,\u201d Judge Garry Collin replied.<\/p>\n

Walsh said Ramsay had to care for her sisters after her mother died during childbirth.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat comes with a heavy burden for a 16-year-old who wasn\u2019t as confident in the world as she would have hoped.\u201d<\/p>\n

She was also remorseful and realised the toll her actions had on the victims, especially those whom she shot at.<\/p>\n

Judge Collin said it was fortunate no one was killed.<\/p>\n

He said the victim was selling his ute as he had lost his job and wasn\u2019t able to keep paying the bill for it. <\/p>\n

The offending had left him angry, frustrated and depressed. He and his partner wanted Ramsay sent to prison. <\/p>\n

Another victim told NZME that he was a self-employed contractor when he agreed to swap a vehicle with Ramsay, along with giving her $3500 cash.<\/p>\n

Despite carrying out checks on the vehicle some weeks later and attempting to sell it, armed police surrounded his car in an Auckland street while he waited for a prospective buyer and arrested him. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis was extremely traumatic and humiliating,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had unknowingly been drawn into serious offending through manipulative and calculated actions by the offender.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe financial, emotional, and psychological impact of this offending has been long-lasting, deeply affecting my wellbeing, independence, and ability to move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

A \u2018tragic childhood\u2019<\/p>\n

In sentencing Ramsay, Judge Collin acknowledged not only her upbringing but also her teen years, which saw her instantly become the carer to a 1-day-old baby and several other siblings.<\/p>\n

She used alcohol, cannabis, and meth from a young age, while the cars she stole were used to fund her P addiction.<\/p>\n

She had also been the victim of her father\u2019s violence, as had her mother, the judge said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s probably difficult to imagine a more tragic, difficult, and challenging childhood, teen years, and young adulthood,\u201d Judge Collin said.<\/p>\n

On 20 charges, mostly relating to obtaining by deception and drugs, Judge Collin took a starting point of 46 months\u2019 imprisonment.<\/p>\n

He then made an allowance for her upbringing and remorse before jailing her for two years and eight months.<\/p>\n

As for the $107,000 reparation, Judge Collin declined to order it, saying the chances of her repaying the victims were \u201cnil and frankly unrealistic\u201d.<\/p>\n
