gutted for the whanau. hope they get some closure now. river searches are bloody harrowing, seen too many up north.

fkn oath, river searches are next level grim. team did what they could.

Noah Bennett2026-07-23T00:30:12.000Z

took them nearly a month to find a body in a river? a bit slow mate. where was the police focus, on speed cameras?

Reese Morgan2026-07-23T00:44:12.000Z

you try finding a body in the northern wairoa with all the silt and snags. easy sitting behind a screen.

jeez, dargaville doesn't need more bad news. this is so sad. thoughts go out to his family 💔

Casey Adams2026-07-23T00:56:12.000Z

wonder how many tax dollars were burned on this 'search' just to find him in a river. tragic but feels like a wasted effort.

Aria Wilson2026-07-23T01:09:12.000Z

rest easy saxzin. another young life gone way too soon. northland needs more support for our rangatahi fr.

Casey Adams2026-07-23T01:36:12.000Z

lol 'support for rangatahi' like that'll stop a drowning. be real.

work out here in kaipara, seen the cops buzzing around all week. they put in the hours tbh. not their fault the river's grim.

Noah Bennett2026-07-23T02:04:12.000Z

fair point, but still feels like it dragged on. my gfs uncle went missing in that river took 3 days. 3 days not a month.

Noah Bennett2026-07-23T01:28:12.000Z

yeah nah 'hours' on overtime pay. maybe if they'd checked the river week one instead of door-knocking.

Casey Adams2026-07-23T01:40:12.000Z

bit rich complaining 'wasted effort' when a family gets no answers. someone's gotta look.
