One of the Dilworth School tutors accused of sexual abuse who recently died can now be publicly identified.
And it can also be revealed that Keith William Dixon was previously jailed in 2014 for historic sex offences.
Dixon, 70, recently lived in Palmerston North.
But his links to Dilworth School in Auckland attracted the attention of investigators with Operation Beverly, the police inquiry into sex abuse at the school.
The investigation has led more than 80 complainants to come forward and resulted in dozens of charges.
Dixon first appeared on March 1 in Auckland District Court, alongside Graeme Charles Lindsay of Levin.
