A businessman from a prominent family, Wayne Wright Jr was falsely identified on social media of being a name suppressed individual from a wealthy family who was charged and sentenced for knowingly possessing thousands of objectionable material files and knowingly importing the content.

Mat Mowbray was also incorrectly as the person, but the Herald and a document from the Ministry of Justice have confirmed it's not him.

The men believe that people convicted of sexual offences against children should never have name suppression.

Wright says he is lucky to have a platform to defend himself but less prominent individuals could have their lives ruined by these type of rumours.
