Subscriber only CHIEF Minister Michael Gunner has referred text messages between disgraced MLA Mark Turner and his lover, who are embroiled in a cocaine sex scandal, to the NT Independent Commissioner Against Corruption. Today (Sunday) I finally received and viewed text messages, which have been the subject of media reporting, showing text conversations, which are alleged to have been exchanged between the Member for Blain and a private citizen last year, Mr Gunner said Sunday night.
