Netflix star hit with more charges
Celebrity croc wrangler Matt Wright has reportedly been hit with two more criminal charges following the helicopter crash that killed his friend and co-star Chris Wilson. The Outback Wrangler host was set to face trial in the Northern Territory Supreme Court next month charged with one count of attempting to pervert the course of justice. However, the charges are now set to be split into three components, a Director of Public Prosecutions spokesperson confirmed to NewsWire. The Crown filed an amended indictment and Crown case outline that contained three counts of perverting the course of justice, rather than just the one, the DPP said. The trial is set to start on July 28. Mr Wright's co-star Mr Wilson was killed in a helicopter crash while on a crocodile egg collecting expedition in the Northern Territory in February 2022. Pilot Sebastian Robinson was left a paraplegic. At the time of the crash, Mr Wilson was being hung from the helicopter by a sling. He left behind his wife Danielle and their two young sons. His criminal charges relate to his alleged actions after the fatal crash.
