<
div>Matt Wright, the star of Outback Wrangler, has plead not guilty to attempting to pervert the course of justice, three years after a tragic helicopter crash. Wright faces three charges of attempting to interfere with justice when he appeared at Darwin’s supreme court, where he entered his plea calmly, sporting a light blue shirt and blue jeans. He kissed his wife during an adjourment. The crash, which took place in remote West Arnhem Land in 2022, resulted in the death of his co-star, Chris “Willow” Wilson, and left the pilot, Sebastian Robinson, seriously injured. The trial, scheduled to begin this Wednesday, is expected to last for four weeks and will hear from approximately 25 witnesses. Wright, known for his appearances in National Geographic’s Outback Wrangler and Netflix’s Wild Croc Territory, stands at the center of this high-profile case.
