One vehicle was engulfed by flames just a few metres from a waterfront home. The case had since been assigned to lawyer Rob Harrison who asked for more time so one of the mental health assessors could re-engage with Schmidt about his mental state at the time of the offending, and for another report to be finalised. The charges related to an incident on October 6 last year. Schmidt was seen walking up to a vehicle parked at Wedge Point, between Picton and Shakespeare Bay, when the Picton Volunteer Fire Brigade drove past, about 1.45am.
A 32-year-old Samoan housemate, stood up from the table and challenged Lamosi, telling him to stop swearing. Lamosi then went outside. A short time later, he appeared at an exterior door, and told his housemate to step outside. The man went outside, and they started wrestling in a car park.

Lamosi was in New Zealand to work in Marlborough’s vineyards under the RSE scheme. Two other housemates, including the 22-year-old who dropped the pot lid, went outside to break the pair up. They managed to grab the 32-year-old away from Lamosi. Meanwhile, the 22-year-old pulled at Lamosi.

About 22 years ago, the deeply human story of a five-year old Cuban boy, Elian Gonzalez, caught the attention of the whole world. He was the subject of an intense diplomatic row between the governments of Cuba and the United States.
Gonzalez lost his mother, Elizabeth Rodriquez, in late 1999. While attempting to leave Cuba in a boat, the woman drowned. Elian’s father, Juan Miguel Gonzalez, remained in Cuba while the accident happened.
The poor boy survived the accident and he was found by fishermen in an inner tube floating on the sea. The fishermen kindly handed Gonzalez to the States Coastal Guards to be taken ashore for proper care. After the boy was discharged from the hospital, the U.S. immigration granted him a temporary deferral and handed him over to his great uncle, Lazaro Gonzalez in Miami, Florida.
