Background
Information from The New Zealand Paedophile and Sex Offender Index, New 2004 Edition
Sims, a builder and former scout from Titirangi in Auckland, used computers, games, alcohol, food and money to make friends with the boys and often befriended their families also. Justice Hansen said: "The substantial risk that you will reoffend seems to me to be almost inevitable."
