flag New Zealand's Supreme Court upheld a life sentence for a 16-year-old who killed an unarmed man mistaken for a gang rival.

flag A 16-year-old Mongrel Mob member, Kayleb Renata, has been denied his appeal against a life sentence for the 2021 stabbing death of Jamaine Wharton, an unarmed man mistakenly believed to be a rival gang member due to wearing a black hat. flag The Supreme Court of New Zealand upheld the original ruling, stating the lower courts properly considered Renata’s youth and that no miscarriage of justice occurred. flag The court rejected his request for more time to appeal and found life imprisonment appropriate given the crime’s brutality, affirming the sentence as final.
