Christopher Luxon: National Party leader has questions around Auckland CBD shooter wasn't in prison
National wants to know why the 24-year-old Auckland CBD shooter wasn't in prison.
Matu Tangi Matua Reid was on home detention for domestic violence, and had approval to work at the construction site.
National party leader, Chris Luxon, told Kate Hawkesby the perpetrator had committed some pretty violent crimes.
He says the issue of not sending our violent offenders to prison has filtered down through the judiciary system, and we've ended up with soft sentencing.
