Teina Pora was wrongly imprisoned for 20 years for the rape and murder of Susan Burdett, brutally attacked in her Papatoetoe home in March 1992. Investigative journalist Eugene Bingham joins Jesse to us through the case.

On Monday 23 March, 1992, Susan Burdett was raped and beaten to death with a softball bat.

What followed would become one of this country's most prominent miscarriages of justice.

Teina Pora was convicted of Burdett's rape and murder in 1994, found guilty again at a retrial in 2000, but eventually the convictions were quashed by the Privy Council in 2004.

In 2020, prolific rapist Malcolm Rewa was found guilty of the crime.

Investigative Journalist Eugene Bingham spent four years investigating the case and describes how a man spent more than 20-years of his life in prison for a crime he didn't commit.

Maney has always denied any role in the murder and in the 2018 RNZ-Stuff podcast Gone Fishing, she said she had never even met Fuller-Sandys.
