Reality TV star Matt Wright has been found guilty of two counts of attempting to pervert the course of justice after a deadly helicopter crash.

But a Supreme Court jury in Darwin on Friday failed to reach agreement on a third count after a four-week trial.

The Outback Wrangler star was accused of trying to cover up evidence following the February 2022 crash that killed his co-star Chris “Willow” Wilson and left pilot Sebastian Robinson a paraplegic.

The pair were on a crocodile-egg collecting mission in Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory, with Wilson slung on a line below the chopper to be dropped onto croc nests in remote swampland.

The Air Transport Safety Bureau concluded the helicopter ran out of fuel, causing the engine to shut down and the machine to crash to the ground.
