Dignity and respect were the drivers of a ceremony in the north Waikato in which Police laid to rest the remains of Samuel Pender Lakey alongside his wife, Christobel. The couple were murdered at their Ruawaro farm near Huntly in October 1933 and a small number of Samuel’s remains had been part of the New Zealand Police Museum collection placed in storage following their use for investigative training last century.
