Jasper has been previously convicted of numerous sexual offences against children. Jasper has done treatment programs, but police said he is considered a high risk to re-offend and all children, particularly boys, are at risk of sexual violence.

In 2003, Jasper invited a 10-year-old boy into his car and drove him to a secluded spot where he sexually assaulted him. He was sentenced to 26 months in jail but after being released in 2006 he was convicted of breaching the terms of his long-term supervision order.

Rainie Semple, 43, also known as Rene Everett, will be released from Stony Mountain Institution on Monday.

In 2000, Semple sexually assaulted a woman at knifepoint. Seven years later, while in police custody, Semple threatened to kill the sexual assault victim.

While people should take suitable measures to protect themselves, police said any form of vigilante activity directed towards Jasper or Semple will not be tolerated.
