he’ll be out in two years, right? we can see wher his asshole sons learned from.

I had seen Nia’s story and picture before but like her cowardly neighbours, I was to afraid to read her story in it’s entirety well tonight I did it and I am beyond enraged! Amy I totally understand you breaking a Sharpie, I am grinding my teeth to pulp as I type right now! Thank you for covering it here Amy, it’s a story that needed to be told and I am certain it was no easy task, I feel like going fucking berserk myself right now.

Just before I made my way back to PYSIH I read plenty, This paragraph particularly made me want to get on the next plane to NZ and go ape shit…

“The neighbours were too scared to speak to 3 News on camera, but they say they often heard the little girl crying.
Last Friday they saw her on the roof, terrified and screaming but they did not call the police.
It was not until Sunday – more than 36 hours later – that Nia was taken to Rotorua Hospital.
She had abdominal injuries and bleeding to her brain.”

I seriously can’t believe my eyes…They saw her on the roof, terrified and screaming but they did not call the police!!!!!

Since I can’t get on a plane I google Earthed the place, seen the home there and other pictures…The roof is pointed!!

I would be terrified too, omg I am seeing a 3 year old scared out of her mind clutching on to it with all of her tiny might and my hair is literally standing on end, it harrowing just to imagine it..but to witness it first hand how could those people do nothing???

I ask, how could these people all treat this baby so disgustingly, how?

another article gave me this putrid answer-
“No one seems to know why all these people targeted little Nia for so long. The only excuse one of the accused told police that Nia was repeatedly abused at her Rotorua home because she had an “ugly face”.

Wow. I am so ashamed these creatures are considered human, right now I don’t want to share their species.

Below is some other crap I found that you might find interesting, disgusting but interesting story wise.

. . . Killers’ father bashed Nia too. . .
New Zealand Herald, Article date: December 4,
2008

The father of two men who murdered Nia Glassie
was last night convicted of eight charges of
assaulting the Rotorua toddler.

William Warena Curtis had denied all the charges
but was convicted by a jury which took four
hours to deliver its verdict.

He was remanded in custody until sentencing in
January.

Evidence in the case hinged on the testimony of
Curtis’ daughter, Hoana, who said she saw her
father repeatedly abuse Nia between March and
July last year.

During this time, Nia – who was murdered by
Curtis’ sons Wiremu and Michael – was living at
the same one-bedroom flat as the 49-year-old,
and Hoana said he would slam Nia into walls,
push her, and hit her across the face.

The 17-year-old avoided looking at her father
while she gave evidence, pulling her jacket up
against her face to shield him from view.

She said he would sometimes make Nia’s lip
bleed and would swear at the 3-year-old, once
telling her to “shut the f*** up or he would
stomp on her face”.

The worst incident Hoana witnessed involved
Curtis strangling Nia with a scarf.

She said he wrapped the scarf around Nia’s neck
two or three times, then lifted her off the ground
and held her in the air for 10 seconds.

“Her face turned purple and then he chucked her
to the ground.”

Upset by the incident, Hoana told Curtis she
would stab him if he did it again. “He said I
was a little bitch and he’d do it to me as well.”

. . . Nia’s tormentor gets four years in jail for ‘inexplicable violence’ . . .
New Zealand Herald, Article date: Feb 14, 2009

A judge took only 10 minutes yesterday to decide the fate of the man who abused 3-year-old Nia Glassie, sentencing him to four years in prison for “inexplicable and incomprehensible violence”.
The father of the two men who murdered the toddler showed no emotion in the Rotorua District Court as Judge Phillip Cooper set the punishment.

Dressed in black clothing and wearing his signature mullet haircut, William Curtis smiled and waved at two relatives sitting in the public gallery. He stood in the dock flanked by two Corrections officers.

Curtis’s sons Michael and Wiremu were last week sentenced to 17 years for murdering the toddler.

Her death followed months of torment, which included putting her in a tumble drier and spinning her on a clothes line at a house on Frank St, Rotorua, where the two men, Nia and her mother Lisa Kuka – Wiremu’s partner – lived with several others.

William Curtis committed his abuse earlier, when the family lived at his house on James St.

Justice Judith Potter last week took most of the day to sentence the Curtis brothers, Kuka and two others – Oriwa Kemp and Michael Pearson – on various charges.

But yesterday the sentencing of William Curtis was over so quickly that several of the 50-year-old’s family members did not get to the court room before it was over, leaving his partner Mary outside asking, “What did he get?”

Curtis had denied eight assault charges but was found guilty by a jury in December.

Yesterday, he was sentenced to three years in jail on the main charge of assault with a weapon – he wrapped a scarf around Nia’s neck and held her off the ground for 10 seconds, making her face go purple – and a year for the other charges. The two terms are to be served cumulatively.

The court earlier heard that Curtis had back-handed Nia, making her lip bleed, pushed her to the ground and towards a wall and threatened to stomp on her head.

Defence lawyer Harry Edwards said there was no dispute his client should receive at least three years for the lead charge – which carries a maximum sentence of five.

But he asked the judge to take into account when considering penalties for the other seven charges the fact that Curtis’s previous convictions were not for violence offences but drink-driving and dishonesty offences.

Crown prosecutor Amanda Gordon said the sentence needed to reflect the severity of the offending.

“There was no reason for the assault. Nia was simply sitting or playing, doing nothing to inspire any anger from the prisoner.”

Judge Cooper said Curtis was a step-grandfather to Nia and she was entitled to be nurtured.

“He seems to think violence against a child is acceptable.”

And he told Curtis: “For no apparent reason you would walk over to her and push her to the ground. This would happen often. This child was in your house. She was defenceless and vulnerable. She was the target of inexplicable and incomprehensible violence.”

Note this Mother of the year chain of events following Nia’s death . . .

(CYF seized Nia’s sibling after injuries)
Two of Kuka’s other children were taken into Child Youth and Family custody and placed in the care of extended family after Nia was hospitalised 12 days ago. They are believed to have witnessed some of the abuse on their sister.

For her part, Kuka refused to say whether she was still in a relationship with Wiremu Curtis, telling the Herald on Sunday in a text message: “Im strong 4 my gurl we bth r.”But Kuka told the Sunday Star Times she was “angry and hurting” and wanted “the mongrels” who tortured her little girl to pay for her death. In a text message to the Herald on Sunday last week, she said: “People out thea dat know me know dat I love and care 4 my babi wif al my heart.”

“I’m angry there’s nothing being done about the mongrels that did this. Them being locked up means nothing to me. I’m just so upset because nothing has been done to them yet.”She felt like she was paying for their crime, she said.

(Sisters of Nia deserted by mother)

The two sisters of slain toddler Nia Glassie have been deserted by their mother – and their father has also returned home to Australia.

No one knows where Lisa Kuka was or what she might have been doing that was more important, but the Herald on Sunday can confirm she was a no-show at crucial discussions to decide the fate of Jessie, 10, and Esther, 8 – the two children who witnessed the alleged abuse of Nia.

Last month, CYF called a meeting to discuss Kuka having supervised access to the two children, but she did not turn up. A Family Group conference was then called a fortnight ago and again Kuka was a no-show.It is understood she also did not respond to numerous phone calls from CYF.

– Oct 24, 2007 –
Lisa Kuka wore a bright yellow T-shirt with the words “Baby Nia 4 eva” emblazoned on the back at her first appearance with her co-accused since she was charged on October 9.
_________________________________________________

– Child Youth and Family had seized one of Lisa Kuka’s children after the child suffered non-accidental head injury 5 years prior, but there were no follow-up checks on other children. That child along with two other children (who family placed in care) reside with Kuka’s Aunt.

– CYF investigated allegations of sexual abuse in the household of co-accused Wiremu and William Curtis.

– Wiremu Curtis was only 15 when he began a relationship with Nia’s mother, then 32-year-old Lisa Kuka.

– Co-accused Oriwa Kemp has a 2-year-old child and associations with the Black Power gang.
________________________________________________

(So speaking of Oriwa Kemp here’s something on her as well:)

Tuesday, June 30, 2009 – Article -Lock up your children!

We’ll say it again – lock up your children, if you live in Rotorua. “Why?” you ask. Because Stuff reports that Oriwa Kemp, one of those convicted and imprisoned for the horrific abuse against Nia Glassie is being freed from prison. Kemp has served two years of her three year, four month sentence, even though it is only five months since she was sentenced.
__________________________________________________
– From Court Registry –
Oriwa KempWilful ill-treating a child under 16 years:• Count 7 (general ill-treatment) three years four months imprisonment;• Count 5 (clothesline incident) two and a half years;• Count 24 (throwing shoes at Jessie) nine months;• Count 25 (throwing shoes at Esther) nine months;The sentences on Counts 5, 24 and 25 are to be served concurrently with the sentence on Count 7 and concurrently with one another.

So basically we have
* Monster Sr. abusing Nia too and getting a slap on the wrist
* Mommy already abusing kids, one hurt 5 years ago-taken by CYF. 2 other taken by family because she sucks as a Mother
* Sexual abuse was going on as well as everything else by Wiremu and William Curtis
* Mommy is a rapist too since she shacked up with Wiremu when he was 15
* Oriwa Kemp already released to be free to take her own baby around members of the Black Power gang.

A am so disgusted right now I can’t see straight. There isn’t one shred of this story that does not fill me with revulsion.

Justice Judith Potter had to ask a packed public gallery to quieten down as she read out the sentences for Wiremu Curtis, 19, and Michael Curtis, 22, in the High Court at Rotorua today.

An auntie of Nia, Paki Rapana, yelled “Rot in hell you baby-killers, bastards” as she left the courtroom.

Nia’s mother, 35-year-old Lisa Kuka, who was last year found guilty on two manslaughter charges was sentenced to nine years imprisonment.

“She chose to ignore the risk to which her three-year-old daughter was exposed to,” Justice Potter said.

“It was her decision to leave Nia and her other two children in the care of her 17-year-old partner Wiremu Curtis and the other occupants of 13D Frank Street.

“Lisa Kuka was the only person Nia could look to for care and she failed her, utterley.”

they all look psycho and stupid as if they got something to be proud about..never thought i would say this but, “up yours”….up your snotty noses…
