'Prostitutes, orgies, group sex - all of it': Ex-wife of former Maori leader says he led a paedophile ring who 'passed victims around like a box of beer' - and it goes to the 'highest heights' of New Zealand's power structure
(July 8, 2018) In an emotional Facebook Live video....[late politician Awanui Black's widow] Anihera [Zhou Black] has claimed he and several other men sexually abused young girls and passed victims around 'like a box of beer.'
Weeping hysterically in the self-filmed video, she said on Saturday:
'I have an announcement to make on behalf of my kids and I and perhaps it will shock a lot of you and perhaps it will help some of you find some comfort... something that needs to be done.'
She went on to explain how he would have affairs, orgies and abuse young girls with other paedophiles.
'He became a predator, a recruiter, a teacher, a pimp, a ringleader of one of the many child-adult sex rings here in his beloved Tauranga Moana and he took that s--- nationwide with all his contacts in every stream of life.
'They would recruit the innocent... share them around like a box of beer, consume every last drop and discarding the empty vessels into the gutter, soulless, cold and broken.'
Widow says her former husband's paedophile rings goes to 'highest heights'
(July 10, 2018) The widow who told the world her politician husband was a paedophile says he was involved in a ring of abusers which goes to "the highest heights you can imagine".
In an exclusive interview, Anihera Zhou Black told the Herald:
"This goes deep and wide, in terms of the paedophile ring, to the highest heights you can imagine. These people aren't just labourers and workers at fast food restaurants. These people are suits and people in power."
Awanui Black died aged 48 in 2016.
He was a regional councillor, Maori Party political aspirant, a commissioner at the Maori Language Commission, lecturer at Te Wananga o Raukawa and Treaty of Waitangi negotiator for Ngati Pukenga.
He was also a paedophile, according to Zhou Black's gut-wrenching Facebook Live broadcast yesterday.
Zhou Black, 49, with the support of sister Piiata Tiakitai-Turi, 50, said today her decision to denounce her former husband was intended to give strength to victims of abuse.
She told of her belief Black had used their marriage to mask his predatory sexual behaviour towards children and her growing horror as she realised he was not the man she had believed him to be.
The couple had met aged 15 and were in a relationship from 18. He went on to become a highly-regarded pillar of the Bay of Plenty community and someone with the mana required to stand on the national stage.
Her Facebook Live post - based on partial admissions from Black and disclosures from others - came after 26 years of silence.
And there were children, she said. The youngest victim to have emerged was someone who had said they were aged 8 when sexually abused by Awanui Black.
Anihera Zhou Black said in the time which followed [her final 2014 separation from her husband] there came disclosures, and events which occurred that answered questions in her mind from her years married to Awanui Black.
It had led her to believe there was a "ring" of people who - with her former husband - had preyed on children.
She said she would be speaking with police but believed an independent investigation could be necessary as one of those she believed was involved had been a police officer.
"We don't know where the cover up will begin. There are compromised police here in Tauranga that are part of that ring. I know of one."
She would also not name a number of suspected victims, again because it could jeopardise the police inquiry.
"It's an unknown figure, to be honest. I have knowledge of some but whoever else is out there, we've just had so many people come through our lives."
A police spokesperson said they were aware of the video and would be seeking further information about the allegations.
In Tauranga, artist Graham Hoete, also known as Mr G, started painting over a mural he had made of Black.
Police speak to Awanui Black's wife about paedophilia allegations
(July 10, 2018) Police have spoken to the widow of politician Awanui Black about allegations her husband was a paedophile.
Although police confirmed in a statement they had spoken to her regarding the allegations, they provided no futher details of the conversation.
"Police takes allegations of this nature very seriously and the interests and welfare of any potential victims are a priority to us," Detective Inspector Mark Loper said in the statement.
Anihera Zhou Black made the allegations against her husband in a video posted on Saturday afternoon.
"I wondered why Awa invited so many young people through our home over the years and I thought it was to be a good aunty and uncle. I know differently now.

@exposethecriminals, could you edit your post to give some context about who the pedo in question is, how he rose to power, what power he actually has, who financed his campaign, etc.? I don't think most PG researchers are up on Kiwi politics.
exposethecriminals ago
For sure. I'll have to research it, I can start on that tonight. Do you happen to know of any Voat/PG'ers familiar with New Zealand to ping for their insights/links to shed more light on Awanui Black? For now, though, I did find a few things, but I want to spend time interpreting them before I put them in the body of the thread, so I'll just leave them here for now:
His district was in or around Tauranga, on the North Island:

In case anyone besides me needs this, zoomed out view of Tauranga's location within a larger area.
Awanui Black was a member of the Maori Party, their website:

Tribute on party site: "Māori Party mourns Te Awanuiarangi Black":
I don't know what that means, perhaps Black ran in 2008 and 2011 locally, and also for Minister of Parliament for which he came in fifth of 17 people in 2011?:

@risewithoutfear do you happen to have any information regarding Awanui Black, per @Vindicator's questions: https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/2627154/13261555 Thanks!
risewithoutfear ago
Oh! There is a lot of people around the country (NZ) with histories of horrendous sexual abuse while in state care during the 60s-80s. I believe Awanui Black is just one spoke of the rampant sexual abuse wheel.
risewithoutfear ago
I'm afraid I'm not familiar with the man, the first I'd heard about him was when the news dropped this week.
As to financing... it could be the Maori Party or even his own Iwi.
It shows here: http://tauranga.kete.net.nz/tauranga_local_history/topics/show/2850-awanuiarangi-black-1968-2016
...that he is "affiliated" with Ngāti Pūkenga, Ngāi Te Rangi, Ngāti Ranginui, and Ngāti Raukawa ki Otaki.
Ngāi Te Rangi, however, has put up a reward for people to come forward and report to authorities any knowledge they have of the alleged crimes and pedophile ring in the region.
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=12087172
I've been trying to find out which Iwi he's linked to by birth, but no luck. But perhaps Ngāti Pūkenga, Ngāi Te Rangi, Ngāti Ranginui, and Ngāti Raukawa ki Otaki are each linked to his family. (Just to clarify, my family is linked to one Iwi, while my niece and nephew are linked to three because of our family and their father's family).
I'll keep digging and see what I can find out.
Great info shared so far @exposethecriminals!!

Thank you. I really appreciate the information you dug up, it is very helpful

No problem.
There was a new article in the paper today. A victim came forward. Such a heartbreaking read :(

I put together a short post today, going to submit it now, but your info is by far better. I'll ping you into the post.

Thank you @think- ! Your post is great. I'll use your info, condensed, as background in my submission, and if I can dig up anything else like who funded him, I'll add that in too.

Welcome, @exposethecriminals. Yes, please use any info I post! :-)
