More than a dozen patched Mongrel Mob members, some from out of town, turned up to show their support for the gang boss. Given Marshall's brother's connection to the Mongrel Mob, Marshall had been around the gang before without any trouble and it was believed this encounter would be no different. Laupama and the teenage boy, both members of the Mongrel Mob at the time of Marshall's death, were also charged with his murder. While his case is still moving through the court, Laupama was sentenced to five months of home detention in December.
