NZ First names a charity that got some of our $158k


Winston Peters has revealed that $76k of our money went to a charitable trust for a person whose lawyer is Peters' lawyer, Brian Henry. The trust is administered on behalf of Susan Couch, who is currently suing the Corrections Department. Couch is the survivor of the RSA triple murder.

So, here we have a lawyer that doesn't charge for services rendered to Winston Peters, no doubt getting a cut from another trust set up on behalf of a person he is also a lawyer for. All thanks to a tax-payer funded donation by a Government minister to a trust set up on behalf of someone who is suing the Government.
