A jury in New Zealand convicted a 27-year-old man of murdering British backpacker Grace Millane, who went missing in Auckland on Dec. 1 last year. She was 22 years old
SYDNEY - A jury in New Zealand on Friday convicted a 27-year-old man of murdering a British woman backpacker, a case that shocked the country and raised questions about its reputation as a safe, easy-going holiday destination.
The man, whose name has been suppressed by the court, met Millane on the evening of Dec. 1 through dating app Tinder, the jury heard. He pleaded not guilty to murder, arguing that she died accidentally during consensual sex. “Grace was our sunshine and she will be missed forever,” her father told reporters outside the court.“Grace was taken in the most brutal fashion a year ago and our lives have been ripped apart.”Prosecutors had told the jury the convicted man took several photos of Millane’s body on Dec. 2. Later that day, he placed the body in a suitcase and drove in a rental car to where he buried her.
