Police computer pop-up warnings focus of manslaughter trial

From Checkpoint, 6:27 pm on 20 May 2021

Pop-up warnings on a police computer system that told them to take a heavily intoxicated man to hospital have been the focus at the trial of three Taranaki police officers.

They are charged with the manslaughter of Allen Ball while he was in custody at the Hawera police station in June 2019.
