  • 9As '3rd Degree' reported last night, New Zealander Vernon Gardiner will spend the next two decades behind bars in a Filipino prison unless he can pay a Filipino worker whom he promised work to in Christchurch, which fell over after the 2011 February quakes. He has been unable to raise the money, but in an unusual twist the judge in the case is backing Gardiner. He has spent the past 17 months in a Filipino prison and if help does not come soon he will spend another 20 more years behind bars. The irony is at 66, Gardiner is entitled to a pension which could help him pay back the money he owes. Judge Lelu Contrerous, tough and feisty, put Gardiner behind bars. Bizarrely she has become Vernon Gardiner's greatest champion. So what next for Gardiner? Interview with Sarah Hall, the reporter who has been working on the story.
