Disgraced arts patron James Wallace will be released from prison today
11 December 2023
The 85-year-old had his second parole hearing last month.
The Parole Board said Wallace had been assessed by a psychologist as a low risk of sexual re-offending and a low risk generally of offending.
He must abide by some special conditions relating to visitors and stay at a specific address every night.
Wallace was sentenced to a two-year-four-month prison term in May 2021 after being convicted of indecently assaulting three men at his Auckland mansion and twice attempting to pervert the course of justice.
