They deny murdering Wilkinson, kidnapping him and his friend Kyle Rowe, wounding Rowe with intent to cause grievous bodily harm and participating in an organised criminal group. The Crown says Rowe and Wilkinson were attacked by fellow Mongrel Mob members because they robbed a Bunnythorpe drug dealer without permission and failed to share the proceeds. Thompson was the last witness in the Crown case, which opened in February. He spent his time in the witness box being grilled on various aspects of the case, including how evidence was disclosed to lawyers. A common theme arising from all defence lawyers was the evidence of Krystal Hewitt, who was regularly called one of the most important parts of the Crown case.
