Justice Karen Clark said there was a "clear and convincing case" to give Wiremu Allen the chance of parole. Both invaders had pistols and the victim was shot in the side of the knee when the younger man's firearm discharged, which the Crown accepted was accidental. Stuff Wiremu Allen joined the King Cobras after he was shot when he tried to leave the Mongrel Mob. After the shooting he tried to change but an uncle drew him back to gang life with the King Cobras. The younger man involved, Waitoharuru Karaitiana, 21, was sentenced in February to 11 months' home detention and 200 hours' community work on charges of aggravated burglary and wounding with reckless disregard.
