A jury has found Dustin La Mont not guilty of murder and wounding a man after he stabbed two men from a neighbour's noisy party. When the verdict was read, La Mont stood quietly in the dock as Pukeroa's friends and family gasped. Family swore at La Mont and woman called him a "murderer". and was told that it had been disassembled and disposed of in a Mt Albert walkway and in a skip outside the cafe where La Mont worked. They then advanced towards him and one of them swung a punch, La Mont said.
