[2] Wilson was recalled to jail in February 2013 after he allegedly made a phone call to someone he was not allowed to contact.
[11] Prior to his release in 2012, he told the High Court he had received only four hours of one-on-one counselling in the 18 years he had been in prison.
[12] Wilson said he had also offered to attend a 'Sexual Treatment Outpatients Programme' (STOP) to treat sex offenders, but was not permitted to do so.
[5] In the process of establishing his release conditions, the parole board was told by clinical psychologist Jane Freeman-Brown that Wilson was still at high risk of re-offending.
The first of those conditions required Wilson to live in a state house which was to be shifted onto the grounds of Whanganui Prison especially for him.
[18] After the High Court ruled against the council, Councillor Ray Stevens started a campaign to have Wilson banned from Whanganui shops.
Columnist Rosemary McLeod observed that the media generally cannot get away with such insulting terminology – but said nobody seemed to be protesting at Wilson's being "dubbed in this way".
[20] Jim Hopkins, a columnist for The New Zealand Herald noted for his humorous writing style, said: "We're never told who did the dubbery, but it is exceedingly kind of the media to advise us that it's happened.
"[21] Victoria University professor Tony Ward, a clinical psychologist with expertise in sexual offenders, tried to allay the public's fears.
[22] The Howard League for Penal Reform was also concerned about "local bodies feeding moral panic and hysteria" and wrote to the Whanganui District Council stating it may issue a High Court challenge over Council steps to orchestrate the shunning of Murray Wilson.
[23] Wilson was recalled on an interim basis in February 2013 after Corrections claimed he had made a phone call to a woman on his blacklisted contacts list.
The Board said he still posed an undue risk to the community after it emerged that he had talked with the woman about leaving the country and said he "remained deceptive in his behaviour and selective in what he chose to disclose to his probation team".
[24] This meant that Wilson was likely to remain in prison until the end of his sentence in September 2015, after which release conditions could be imposed for a maximum of six months.
The Corrections Department sought an extended supervision order against Wilson for a term of 10 years, starting when his parole or release conditions came to an end.
