After the death of a 19-year-old toddler, police were not able to name the suspects immediately. A homicide investigation into Wharehinga’s death was started in February and authorities seek information from the public.
In February, a police spokeswoman said, “This is a tragic way to start 2022; I would encourage anyone with information, even if they think it may not be relevant, to please come forward.”
The police also gave contact information to help the police in the case saying, “Anyone who may have any information can contact Gisborne Police via 105 and refer to file number 220106/5689 or call Crime Stoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”

The name of the suspects was not disclosed yet. There is no information about why they killed the child. The spokesman was unable to make any additional comments because the case is now in court.
Manslaughter and causing great bodily harm with reckless disregard are the charges against the guy while perverting the course of justice is the charge against the woman. Both of them are charged with neglecting a child and are now facing charges.
