Disbelief over Corrections' management of a convicted rapist who moved on to murder.
Joseph Brider was sentenced to a life behind bars this week for killing his neighbour Juliana Herrera in her Christchurch home.
It happened just 72 days after Brider had been released from Prison.
The Parole Board referred him to an intensive rehab programme but Corrections cancelled it, claiming there was no space.
Board chair Sir Ron Young says that he doesn't know if Corrections lied, but the information was incorrect.
He says it's hard to know or understand Corrections' motives, as the board thought the instructions were clear and everything was set up.
