FREAK!wear / productions / DAVID FREAK
then became the subject
of investigation! appearing on TVNZ's 20/20 Thursday 15th sep 2005, taking to
the public the reason why there is such a thing as FREAK!.
And this is the REASON that
started it all for the designer DAVID ROIL...... launching FREAK! in the faces
of those who would know about and remember the death of a Wellington women....on
the night of Thursday 6th of January 1972...... MARGARET WALKER..... biological
parent of the designer!!!
MARGARET became the
most talked about person at the beginning of that year with her death! as of
course in this country at the time POLICE involvement ALWAYS meant racism and
who could scratch who's back, of course MARGARET was a young Maori women,
23, just let out of jail for stealing a wallet (no such thing as a benefit then)
and then returned from DUNEDIN taking unawares her contacts, serving 9 months of
a 12 month sentence.
The POLICE claim that she
"...... let herself into an unlicensed boarding house, nobody was home, ran up
the stairs and banged on the doors, no answer, went to leave and then fell down
the stairs and died." (another drunk Maori story to get rid of! how many times
have we heard that!!!! )
20/20 then contacted people
that were at the house that night, David Roil also found official documentation
that a Sgt Jack Marshall owned the house was never interviewed by the POLICE
and more importantly THERE WAS NO TIME OF DEATH RECORDED WHATSOEVER in any
documentation that is available especially when it was an OFFICIAL
HOMICIDE, When interviewed on the docomentary the real estate agent that
collected the rent from the tenants stated that ...." I find it impossible that
nobody was at home that night and Sgt Marshall rang me the morning of the death
asking if I could come down to the house and talk to the POLICE as he didn't
want to let them know that he was a POLICEMAN!" .
Lots of situations like
this then started to "rear its ugly head" and the NZ POLICE have still not given
a satisfactory answer to any questions that have arisen from this official case
that has most of its evidence DESTROYED by the same investigation. (recorded as
a "accidental death", officially)
The designer David Roil,
has made numerous inquiries since 1986, more recently ringing the former D.S.I.R.,
now INDUSTRIAL SERVICES located in PORIRUA, made contact with a lab technician
that was working in the lab the day that Margaret's samples were being
processed.
David asked : " .....what
would have happened to the samples from the the OFFICIAL homicide once the NZ
POLICE decided that MARGARET had alcohol in her system? " on reply the
contact said".... they would have been DESTROYED" (along with anything that had
her name on it as there is now only a birth cert and a dodgy death cert that is
in existence )
MARGARET, it was claimed
had 303 millilitres contained in her urine and 374 millilitres in her blood, the
result of a "...14HR drinking binge!" - (the coroners report said that
Margaret's bladder was empty!)
David obtained through
public records at the NZ ARCHIVES, Wgton, MARGARETS coroners report, that then
stated a whole lot more....... that the NZ POLICE will not take into
evidence that prove it was HOMICIDE!
(on the morning of the
funeral, Jan 12th 1972, a NZ POLICE official turned up on the doorstep of the
relatives of MARGARET not to send their condolences but to inform
them"....... that there wasn't any reason to investigate any further and any
questions would be ignored and to not approach the NZ POLICE on the matter
again." as quoted by the then 12yr niece of MARGARET when she was standing
on the stairs putting on her cardigan.)
(Official NZ POLICE
letterheaded letter states that: "....they had been tracking your (David's)
progress and stated that there was no official record of the investigation of
the time as it had been destroyed. (despite that fact the same letter states
blood reports, urine reports, that MARGARET was three times the now legal limit
to drive?, that all files had been destroyed in this case, YET THIS INFORMATION
CAME FROM THE SAME SAID FILES.)
AND LOTS MORE STUFF that is
all from the OFFICIAL documentation of the time.
The reason for
FREAK! and its involvement in the public is not
only to show what is different in the fashion industry and to be a positive
influence in society, but is to move the official verdict from
"accidental death" back to a "homicide", to gain legal rights under New
Zealand Law as a New Zealand citizen, at the moment and of course the reason
for the verdict that long ago, is that you have no rights as a descendant to
investigate a death if they "... did it themselves"!
