Bradbury had been out of prison just over a year at the time of the offending in 2017 in Queenstown, having spent 13 years in prison for abducting a 15-year-old at knife point and raping her in Auckland in 2003 and indecently assaulting other minors around the same time.
Bradbury was today sentenced by Justice Gerald Nation to preventive detention with a minimum of five years of non parole period.
Justice Nation said the preventive detention was necessary "to protect the community as he has a serious history of sexual offence and a high risk to reoffending".
