Jeremiah Su’a has been described by multiple witnesses as the president of a Mongrel Mob chapter, with some saying the chapter was Mongrel Mob Aotearoa or Mongrel Mob Manawatū. It was something he reaffirmed when giving statements to police in October 2019, including after his arrest during a video interview that went for about six hours. The full video was played in court on Thursday. Jeremiah Su’a was on parole at the time of Wilkinson’s death. He said there had been changes while he was in prison, especially in the attitude of some Mobsters.
On Monday Hewitt told the jury she’d seen Rowe with blood coming from his head while outside her Ashhurst house the night Wilkinson was allegedly killed. Wilkinson was at the house and when men arrived he went outside with Rowe, telling Hewitt to stay inside, she had said. Signal’s lawyer Charl Hirschfeld questioned Hewitt’s memory of the night, saying she was stressed and unable to accurately recall everything. She disagreed. “I was focusing on my child and everything, really. You can’t just focus on one thing when you’re in a situation like that. “In the back of my mind I’m worried about my child.”
