Former Gloriavale leader Howard Temple has been sentenced to 26 months in jail for sexual offending.
He had indecently assaulted young women and girls over a 20 year period at Gloriavale as recently as 2022.
It comes as newly released documents show just how explicitly the government has been warned by its agencies that Gloriavale is not a safe place for women and girls.
The lawyer who previously represented Gloriavale leavers Dennis Gates told Ryan Bridge that, "What you basically have here is institutionalised domestic violence on a macro scale."
