A woman convicted of murdering her long-term boyfriend before being released on parole just seven years later is back behind bars after breaching her parole conditions.
Jacqueline Elaine Wihongi, 33, was convicted for the stabbing murder of her long-term boyfriend, Vivian Sinclair Hirini, 37, in 2010 after a domestic dispute spilled out onto the street in Napier, 400km south east of Auckland.
Wihongi was one of only three convicted murderers in New Zealand spared a life sentence. Instead, she was given 12 years jail and was released on parole in May of 2017.
