Should of thought of the hardship before they drugged and raped people

Stuff reports:

While they concede they will be named eventually, lawyers for the Mama Hooch sexual predators are fighting to keep their identities secret for now.

In one of the biggest prosecutions of its kind in New Zealand, the 40-year-old and 38-year-old men were convicted of dozens of crimes – including rape, sexual violation, indecent assault, and spiking drinks – after a two-month trial in the Christchurch District Court that began in February.

For her client, defence lawyer Trudi Aickin said his relatives would suffer extreme hardship from his name being published.

They will suffer hardship, but that is a natural consequence of having a relative drug and rape people.

They boasted to each other about how they were drugging women so they could take advantage of them. They will be facing lengthy prison sentences, and they will be named.
