Brisbane, Australia — In a courtroom laden with tension, Noelene Chellingworth, mother of helicopter pilot Sebastian Robinson, testified that Matt Wright, a celebrity crocodile wrangler, allegedly urged her son to delete information from his phone while he lay hospitalized after a devastating helicopter crash.
Chellingworth recounted the events of March 11, when Wright arrived at the hospital with his wife, Kaia Wright, armed with a “color-coded” spreadsheet. Although she couldn’t discern all the details of the spreadsheet, she speculated it related to operational logistics involving the helicopters. It was noted that Wright departed the hospital with some documents while leaving others behind, one of which Robinson later annotated.
During her testimony, Chellingworth remembered Wright discussing specific flight hours related to the helicopters involved, instructing Robinson to transfer logged hours from the downed craft to his. She asserted that it was at this moment that Wright advised her son to erase certain items from his phone. “Sebastian was lying in bed while Matt stood next to him, instructing him to delete various things,” Chellingworth stated, reinforcing the unsettling circumstances surrounding Wright’s visit.
A notable exchange occurred when Crown prosecutor Jason Gullaci asked Chellingworth about the specifics of Wright’s comments regarding the helicopters. She recounted Wright asking Robinson to consider shifting hours from the crashed aircraft, which Robinson hesitated to address. This conversation, juxtaposed with Wright’s pressing requests to delete material, has added an intricate layer to the ongoing legal proceedings.
In subsequent court sessions, it was revealed that Tim Johnston, a colleague of Wright, visited Robinson’s hospital room after Chellingworth arrived. Johnston reportedly indicated he was there at Wright’s behest, to retrieve Robinson’s phone and diary, which further complicated the situation. Chellingworth expressed her dismay upon learning of Johnston’s intentions, leading her to intervene and claim these items back.
The trial has drawn attention due to its implications surrounding the tragic crash that injured Robinson and claimed the life of Chris “Willow” Wilson. Several witnesses, including family members and industry associates, have shared their experiences, contributing to a narrative that questions the events leading up to the accident.
Zac Chellingworth, Robinson’s brother, has also taken the stand, asserting that he witnessed Wright asking Robinson to falsify records and delete messages from his phone. Wright’s defense has challenged these claims, positing that family dynamics might have influenced their statements. The complexity of relationships among the witnesses has kept jurors on high alert as they navigate through emotional testimonies and conflicting accounts.
At the heart of the trial lies not just the burden of blame but also the pressing questions of accountability in high-stakes environments. Wright, who has gained fame through his television appearances, now stands at a crossroads where public persona and judicial scrutiny collide.
As the courtroom narrative unfolds, insiders speculate on the potential ramifications for all involved, both personally and professionally. While Robinson continues his recovery from a life-altering injury, the shadows of the past linger heavily over the proceedings, echoing the sorrow of lost lives amidst the harsh light of courtroom justice.
The jury has been called back into session, with expectations of further testimonies that could unravel deeper layers of this tragic saga.
