Grace Millane murder: Jesse Kempson named as killer as name suppression lifts

Despite the jury returning a unanimous decision in a matter of hours, Kempson's name has remained protected.
Last Thursday, the Court of Appeal declined to keep his name suppressed past Friday when it dismissed his appeals against his conviction and sentence. Kempson then applied for leave from the Supreme Court to appeal that suppression decision and keep his name secret. 
However, New Zealand's top court today decided it won't hear that appeal, meaning Newshub can now, after more than two years, name the man who murdered Millane. 
Kempson's trial last year made headlines both in New Zealand and around the world.
