Woman changes statement over Kirsty Bentley murder

A woman interviewed over Kirsty Bentley's murder nearly two decades ago wants to change her police statement. Kirsty, 15, disappeared on December 31, 1998 while walking her dog on the Ashburton riverbank.
The Ashburton teenager's body was found hidden under branches in a paddock at the Rakaia Gorge 18 days later. Now a Christchurch woman interviewed several times in relation to the murder has told Stuff.co.nz that she has always had concerns over her ex-partner's professed innocence.
