Millionaire drug addict Mark Lyon can be revealed as the 59-year-old businessman convicted of a range of drug and sex offences last year, including offences against girls as young as 14.
Name suppression lapsed at 5pm today, exposing Lyon as using methamphetamine to exploit sex acts from girls - and carrying out a prolonged punishment assault against a woman shackled in a "dungeon".
The woman's agony through the sexual assault was such she begged Lyon to rape her so it would be over.
Lyon was sentenced to 15 years in jail in December in the High Court at Auckland with a minimum of eight years to be served before a parole hearing. He stood trial with a woman aged 20 who was also found guilty on charges of getting Lyon young girls for his sexual gratification.
The prison sentence brings to an end the millionaire property developer's public fall from grace. He went from being one of the city's most insightful businessmen to someone immersed in drug culture and preyed on by gang members.
