The Regina Police Service has issued a public advisory about a convicted sex offender who is deemed to be a high risk to reoffend.
Jason Paul Thorn, 43, is to move into a Heritage neighbourhood residence that will supervise and monitor his activities. He’s currently on statutory release and is to resume his long-term supervision on April 21.
Thorn is described as Indigenous, 5-foot-9 and approximately 170 pounds, with a medium build, brown eyes and black hair.
In the advisory, the police say Thorn “poses a high risk for acts of sexual offending against female children. The prospects for reduction of his risk through treatment interventions are poor.”
Thorn faces a number of conditions during his release, including staying away from places where children under the age of 18 are likely to gather — such as schools, parks, swimming pools and recreational centres — unless he is accompanied by another adult.
A similar warning was issued in December.
Anyone with questions or concerns about Thorn is to call the Regina Police Service at 306-777-6500 or their nearest RCMP detachment.
