Police have confirmed that cordons on Te Anga Road, near Waitomo, have been lifted following the completion of a scene examination linked to the Tom Phillips investigation.
The area under review is private property, and the landowner has warned that anyone entering without permission will be trespassing, say police.
Authorities have also urged media to respect the privacy of all families involved, including the Phillips family, the mother of the children, and the families of the officers affected by the critical incident.
In a separate statement, Police addressed aerial images published by several media outlets showing vehicles alongside a pile of rubbish at the scene. While a quad bike and motorbike pictured are relevant to the inquiry, Police clarified that the pile of rubbish is entirely unrelated. Police say investigators have since removed all material connected to the case from the site to avoid further confusion.
There you go.
I was waiting for it.
Misleading photos.
But those images are now in the public consciousness, so damage done.
Is there a public relations consultancy advising NZ Police or running relations for this operation?
Can you feel the police slipping further away from public sentiment and respect?
In some sector’s of the public, it’s more of a free fall.
Some things are not adding up for me. If it is so straight forward, then why are the police trying to construct a narrative to portray Phillips so poorly?
Exactly. The police are curating the narrative. I don’t trust them at all.
Tom made fools of them for four years.
They want REVENGE!
chris hipkins. I will hunt down all the unvaxxed. Example 1 Tom Phillips. Prepare accordingly
Exactly. A friend of mine was worried her husband was going to have their kids vaccinated without her consent and she was beside herself. I printed out the Japanese Pfizer documents and gave them to her with the results highlighted. Needless to say he backed down.
I see Phillips ex Mrs – mother of the year “Cat” has been up in court for drunk driving this week……did she want the kids vaxxed and he not want it done?
As for the rubbish – anyone with half a brain cell could see it was just a fly tippers dump.
So why weren’t these misleading photos stopped from the get go? I dont trust the MSM or the cops and this does not help.
Can’t trust anything the MSM and the boys in blue say. Look at Scott Watson. Set up so Pope could move up the ladder.
