    Former Gloriavale leader Howard Temple has been sentenced to 26 months in prison for multiple sex offences


    The 85-year-old pleaded guilty to 12 charges earlier this year - including indecent assault, and common assault.

    The offending relates to nine complainants aged between nine and 20, between 1998 and 2022.

    Judge Raoul Neave handed down the sentence in Greymouth District Court today, after four of the victims read impact statements.
