Some parts are misteries to the little girl misfortunate..

Something is missing calling to our local discusion last night..
They never told the complete story, just parts, the commnity
would like to know who this misteries asian women is, was she real or is she just made up shadow..
Normally when the the plublic is involved, they want to know the complete comprehensive story, such as how much water the little girl shallowed, did the little girl died the same night she dissapeared, or she died the last night she was found..

What a feeble excuse the council gave, a week after Aislings' death that they were waitng for resourse consent to remove the offending Willow tree before they could fix the drain. Neglegence!! It says it all about their prorities dosen't it? What other excuses are you going to come up with? You can't blame it on a tree. Clearing the blocked drain was a priority seeing that it was documented on video that the water would push the lid up making it unsafe. Because you drag out your paperwork so long (over months) common sense tells you the drain comes first the tree comes later. It was a loaded gun waiting to go off. As we hear the complaints go back five years. Shame on you. Hope a prosecution comes from this. Well done to the NZ Police for all of your dedication and hard work. Aisling is now dancing with Jesus and the Angels for eternity.
