The pilot who survived the fatal chopper crash at the centre of Matt Wright’s criminal trial has said he can’t remember taking drugs at a party days before the accident … during his third day giving evidence in Mr Wright’s Supreme Court trial.
Sebastian Robinson — who was left a paraplegic after the 2022 helicopter crash — was cross-examined for several hours by Mr Wright’s barrister.
Mr. Wright has pleaded not guilty to three counts of attempting to pervert the course of justice over allegations he interfered with an investigation into the chopper crash. By Olivana Lathouris for ABC News Northern Territory.
