‘She should have been safe here’: how Grace Millane’s murder shocked New Zealand

When Grace Millane’s parents bid their daughter farewell on her round-the-world adventure in September 2018, they never imagined that one day they would be following her to New Zealand – first on a missing person’s hunt, and a second time to attend a murder trial.
David Millane arrived first, in early December 2018, making a public plea for information as to the whereabouts of his daughter, who had disappeared on the eve of her 22nd birthday.
