Background
From Southland Times story 22nd August 2007
The man responsible for three home invasions leading to two sexual assaults on women in Invercargill in 2005 could be granted home detention. The New Zealand Parole Board declined a parole application for Maxwell Charles Franklin Marie at a hearing last month but indicated he might want to apply for home detention.

An application for home detention was scheduled to take place next month, a Parole Board spokesman confirmed yesterday. In the Invercargill District Court in September 2005, Judge Peter Butler sentenced the then-23-year-old meat worker to three years and three months' jail for crimes he said were an "ultimate violation of home and self" .

Three single women, on three separate occasions, woke to find a man they did not know in their bedrooms -- two were sexually assaulted. An extensive police investigation led to Marie's arrest in May 2005. In the decision of the board, panel convener Judge Ray Kean says there are issues about where Marie can best live. The application for parole was declined on the grounds Marie had no firm arrangements for his future, which meant he posed a risk to the safety of the community, the decision says. The board considered home detention would address issues such as treatment for Marie and would also answer questions about his parole address, because he would be under closer and stricter supervision, the decision says.

From Southland Times story 7th December 2010
Maxwell Charles Franklin Marie, 28, meatworker, was sentenced to two years and seven months' jail, with a minimum non-parole period of one year and eight months, for indecently assaulting a woman he did not know on July 30. He was also sentenced to two years' jail, to be served concurrently, for burglary the same day. The court was told Marie went to the woman's house about 4.30am, entering through an unsecure door, before getting into her bed and pulling her on top of him. The man later returned to the house and spoke to the woman for about 30 minutes, telling her his name, nickname and details of his work. The woman told police she had gone along with what Marie wanted because she had not wanted to provoke him.
