David McNee murder trial begins
Gay New Zealand television celebrity David McNee visited two Auckland sex-on-premises venues the night he was murdered, a New Zealand court heard. McNee, who appeared in a range of television shows as an interior designer, was beaten to death on July 22, 2003. Phillip Edwards, a 24-year-old homeless man was arrested and charged with his killing eight days later driving McNee's car. McNee had picked Edwards up earlier that day. Edwards later told police he had killed McNee because McNee thought he was gay and had tried to touch him. The result? He bashed McNee 30 or 40 times in the head.
