Read more hereAnthony Lawrence Roma, 45, was jailed for life after breaking into a Napier home and murdering Simon Reaney in 1991.
He bludgeoned Simon to death with a car jack before trying to kill his father and then his 11-year-old brother, who was put on life support for two weeks.
Roma was at the time suffering a drug- and alcohol-induced psychotic episode during which he said voices had told him to "kill a Pakeha''.
He told a psychiatrist he believed he was a Maori warrior and had to kill, but an insanity plea was rejected at trial.
