Retired eye surgeon Philip Polkinghorne has been sentenced to 150 hours of community work for methamphetamine charges. The former Auckland eye doctor was found not guilty of murdering his wife, Pauline Hanna, after a 9 week trial earlier this year. Polkinghorne had already pleaded guilty to possession of methamphetamine and a pipe at the start of the trial in July. Finn Blackwell was at court and filed this report.
