Sixty other people wanted Nick Martin dead, lawyers have told a judge presiding over his murder trial as they say David Pye was not the person who paid a trained sniper to shoot him from long range in front of 2000 people at Kwinana Motorplex in 2020. David Pye has been on trial over Martin’s death and other charges relating to alleged plans to have another bikie and an ex-girlfriend killed. Police allege that Pye paid a former soldier $150,000 to kill Martin after the former friends fell out following Pye’s defection to a rival bikie gang. He denies all accusations and as the trial came to a close on Thursday, his legal team told Supreme Court judge Joseph McGrath that “there were 60 other suspects” who could have contracted the killing.
