    A 42-year-old who threatened to kill Dame Jacinda Ardern has been convicted

    A 42-year-old who threatened to kill Dame Jacinda Ardern has been convicted


    Richard Trevor Sivell represented himself in Tauranga District Court - with aspects the Judge called 'legal gobbledygook'.

    The prosecution's case included multiple online threats, messages and voice recordings between November 2021, and January 2022.

    Sivell's also been convicted of obstructing police - for refusing to leave his Te Puke caravan during a raid and failing to provide his mobile phone pin.

    He's been remanded on bail ahead of sentencing in January.
