The man accused of murdering Manawatu farmer Scott Guy told police he knew nothing about obscene graffiti painted on his brother-in-law's house. Ewen Macdonald, 32, is on trial in the High Court at Wellington, charged with shooting dead Mr Guy on the driveway of his Feilding farm in the early hours of July 8, 2010. Police investigating his shooting asked Macdonald about the arson of an old house on Mr Guy's property, and vandalism of a new house during its construction, when holes were smashed in the house and swear words aimed at Mr Guy's wife, Kylee, were painted on its exterior.
