Threats against a woman who made "unfortunate" comments about a soldier killed in Afghanistan can't be condoned, Prime Minister John Key says. Barbara Sumner-Burstyn, a Canadian now living in New Zealand, last week accused Lance Corporal Jacinda Baker of "killing innocent people". She said on her Facebook page: "Oh, so fallen soldier Jacinda Baker liked boxing and baking - did they forget she also liked invading countries we are not at war with, killing innocent people and had no moral compass."
