WELLINGTON - The daughter of a woman killed in the New Zealand mosque shootings challenged white supremacist Brenton Tarrant at his sentencing hearing to use his life in prison to consider the beauty of the diversity and freedom he sought to destroy.
"While he will remain trapped in a cage my mum is free. I therefore challenge Tarrant to use his remaining lifetime to consider the beauty and life to be found in diversity and freedom that he sought to distort and destroy." The second day of a multi-day sentencing hearing is dedicated to allowing survivors and family members of victims to address the court, in person and via video.
"Filled with his own racist agenda this coward hid behind his big powerful guns and shot little old Linda from afar," said Mr Gosse.New Zealand had been relatively free from major gun violence until the country's worst mass shooting.
