[they'll get you]

Bessie was missing 25th May 2014 and now is in trial. NZ is a lot faster than our Australian system, we can wait years before trial.

Man found guilty of raping and murdering Blessie Gotingco

The man accused of killing Auckland mother of three Blessie Gotingco has been found guilty of her rape and murder.

A jury of six men and six women deliberated for just over three hours before finding the 28-year-old accused guilty on both counts after a turbulent trial at the High Court in Auckland.

Name suppression remains in place for the accused.

Video at the link of this dude throwing a tantrum in court, though the camera is mostly trained on the judge.

The man who raped and murdered Blessie Gotingco may be in prison for the rest of his life.

Today Tony Douglas Robertson, 28, was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum-non-parole period of 24 years for the murder and preventive detention for the rape.

In May, was convicted by a jury in the High Court at Auckland of the crimes against the 56-year-old North Shore mother of three, only months after being released for similarly depraved offending.

Simon Bridges prosecuted hundreds of serious crimes in the Bay of Plenty before entering politics. But there's one case the Cabinet Minister remembers as "unforgettable" - the abduction of a little girl by Tony Douglas Robertson who he describes as one of "New Zealand's coldest and worst offenders".

In December 2005, Robertson, who was just 18, kidnapped and molested a 5-year-old as she walked to school in Tauranga.

'He's never admitted his crimes' - Tuesday, 28 July 2015
http://m.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11488227

The mother of a 7-year-old boy Tony Douglas Robertson tried to abduct in 2005 says he has always been "very high risk" and continues to be in complete denial about his offending.

"He will continue to be very high risk because he's never admitted his crimes and never had any counselling," she said.

On December 14, 2005, the day before Robertson snatched a 5-year-old girl from Maungatapu Road while she and her seven-year-old brother were walking to school, he tried to abduct the woman's 7-year-old son and his six-year-old cousin.
