> An elderly, ailing paedophile who targeted boys in the 1970s and early ’80s – abusing his roles as a Marist Brother and boarding school teacher – was wheeled back into an Auckland courtroom yesterday as he was stared down by yet another victim.  
>  
> Charles Robert Afeaki, who turns 83 next month, has been in and out of prison since the mid-1990s, when he was first prosecuted for the historical sexual abuse. This week’s sentencing marks his 40th criminal conviction for child sexual abuse.  
>  
> He returned to prison last August, ordered to serve a 25-month term after admitting to the abuse of two more boys at schools in Auckland and Invercargill during the same period.  
>  
> Auckland District Court Judge Kirsten Lummis added two months to that sentence yesterday for the abuse of another victim who recently came forward: a now 61-year-old who was 12 and attending Invercargill’s Marist Brothers Primary School when the offending happened in 1975.
