In short:

A NSW Supreme Court jury has found Kristian White guilty of the manslaughter of Clare Nowland, who he tasered at her aged care home in May 2023.

Mrs Nowland fell and hit her head and died in Cooma Hospital one week later.

What's next?

White's bail has been continued and the proceedings have been adjourned to tomorrow to consider the Crown's detention application.
