Days 27 - 29: Email highlights Hanna's work stress as witnesses weigh in on her mental health
The Front Page - Un podcast de NZ Herald
Originally due to run for six weeks, the trial of Philip Polkinghorne is now in its seventh week. The former Auckland eye surgeon is accused of murdering his wife, Pauline Hanna, who was found dead on 5 April, 2021. He maintains she took her own life. More witnesses from the defence took the stand to discuss their thoughts on how Hanna died, and the risk factors that could have pushed her to take her own life. New emails from Hanna were read to the court, and the question on if she used her phone the night before she died saw one Crown witness returned to the stand. You can listen to episodes of Accused: The Polkinghorne Trial through The Front Page podcast feed, or find it on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts.
