The Court held the statutory criteria for an ESO were satisfied: the appellant has a pervasive pattern of serious sexual offending and presents a high risk of future relevant sexual offending based on convictions, non‑conviction material and expert assessments; however the ten‑year term was excessive given limited prior treatment, potential for treatment gains and age, so the minimum necessary term for community safety is five years, reducing the ESO accordingly.
