A farmer has been sentenced to nine months’ home detention and banned from owning or managing farm animals for four years for serious animal welfare offending.
Bevan Scott Tait (52) received his sentence by audio visual link at the Invercargill District Court today having earlier pleaded guilty to eight charges under the Animal Welfare Act.
Retired Invercargill doctor Anton De Croos died after Zachary Griffiths, 22, who had been drinking in celebration of crate day hit his vehicle on December 5, 2020. Griffiths was sentenced in the Invercargill District Court on Thursday, for failing to stop to ascertain injury or death after a crash and excess breath alcohol causing death. The court was told Griffiths had celebrated Crate Day by sharing a crate of big beer bottles with a friend, drinking about six, plus three or four Vodka Cruise stubbies during the afternoon and evening. If there were young people drinking, there would be lots of accidents, Thiagan said.

A contestant of The Bachelor New Zealand was sentenced after she admitted stealing more than $12,000 from her employer and from a social organisation she was part of.
Louise Akata Kuresa, 31, appeared today at Invercargill District Court after pleading guilty to five counts of theft by a person in a special relationship and two charges of altering a document with intent to defraud.
Invercargill woman Akata Louise Kuresa appears in the Invercargill District Court for sentence on fraud charges. Transport World is owned by HWR Group, and company director Jocelyn O Donnell said in a victim impact statement read to the court on Wednesday that at the time the offending was discovered, Kuresa cited her involvement on The Bachelor NZ as the reason her credit card statements were incorrect. The self-indulgent fraud was uncovered when Kuresa was away filming the show, O Donnell said. The company made redundancies after the Covid-19 lockdown, but Kuresa s job was saved, O Donnell said. Underneath your charming facade there is different side to you, Lou, she said.
