66-year-old Malcolm Rewa has been sentenced to life in prison for the 1992 murder of South Auckland woman Susan Burdett
26 March 2019
In 1998 he was convicted of raping the 39-year-old, but denied killing her.
Private investigator Tim McKinnel fought for Pora's release - after he was wrongfully convicted of the murder.
He says it's been a bizarre process.
But McKinnel says he's concerned some parts of the case still haven't been properly confronted.
He says some lessons remain to be learned - and there should be a systemic review of what and how things went wrong.
