Helena had been living in her car on another Remuera street since March and police and Auckland Council had received multiple reports of this - but no action appears to have been taken to help her.
Helena Wakefield, 72, was found dead in her red Suzuki Swift on St Vincent Ave, Remuera, on July 7 - despite residents of the wealthy Auckland suburb repeatedly calling police and council for help, fearing that she wouldn't survive winter.
