The White Ribbon March in Victoria Ave yesterday had particular significance for the Wanganui family of victim Tara Brown.
The 24-year-old mother-of-one died brutally in what police described as a "road rage attack" after her car was forced off the road on the Gold Coast in Australia in September.
Her ex-partner, former Wanganui man Lionel John Patea, has been committed to stand trial for her murder. The couple had been living in Australia for some time and had a young daughter.
Yesterday Ms Brown's aunt, Awhina Haenga, and other members of her whanau carried placards with photos of Tara.
