Who would have guessed he was a bad man?

The Herald reports:

A man believed to have suffered around 1000 instances of sexual abuse as a young boy was scared into silence by his abuser’s threats.

But 30 years on, after decades of pain, the man has faced his abuser and reclaimed his voice and his power.

“I want my voice to be heard,” he said last week at the sentencing of Randall Kevin Wilson, a former tattooist from Hikurangi.

Wilson, 49, was sent to prison when he appeared in the Whangārei District Courtfor sentencing on charges of sexual violation against two boys.

He has previously served a prison term for causing the death of a motorist in 2019, after he drove off without paying for $108 of petrol and crashed into her vehicle.

The historical sexual offending dates back to three decades ago and relates to two boys who were under the age of 10 at the time, with one being just 3 years old.

Who would have guessed Mr Wilson was such a bad man. If only there was some subtle sign that could have given people a hint.

Again, if only there was some sort of clue.
