Chief Victims Advisor contacts regards dangerous pedophile protected by name suppression
Mohammed Khan made this Official Information request to Ministry of Justice
This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Mohammed Khan to read recent responses and update the status.
From: Mohammed Khan
Dear Ministry of Justice,
In February 2025 Ruth Money was appointed as 'Chief Victims Advisor' by National Party Minister Paul Goldsmith. In July 2025, a dangerous pedophile with a taste for sadistic sexual abuse of infants was given permanent name suppression in return for his family's donations to the National Party.

Less than a year later, this vile predator has been released to prey upon the community. Because of his name suppression, while he is subject to being placed on the sex offender registry, none of the families around whom he will be allowed to reside, whose children he will prey upon will be allowed to know that he is a registered sex offender.

It seems like the danger that this monster and his protectors pose to children are obviously a matter for the Chief Victims Advisor, if she is doing her job.
1) Please disclose, in their full electronic form (with suppressed names redacted obviously) all communications that the Chief Victims Advisor has had about this high-profile dangerous pedophile case.
Kind regards,
Mohammed Khan
