    The Spin

    Pro-establishment narrative

    Justice has been served. The Jaz brothers are horrible sexual predators who targeted and assaulted women at a scale unprecedented in New Zealand. The brave survivors who testified in this case likely saved many more young women from a similar fate. These men deserve to serve their entire prison sentences.

    Independent

    Establishment-critical narrative

    This case reflects a larger issue of misogyny and sexual violence in New Zealand. While these men and their heinous crimes are disgusting, we should not conveniently distance ourselves from them or their actions. We must also critique the culture and society that has allowed for this sort of behavior to breed due to its longstanding draconian attitudes towards women.
