A convicted sex offender is being released from Headingley Correctional Centre Tuesday and is expected to live in Winnipeg.
The Manitoba Integrated High Risk Sex Offender Unit said 47-year-old James Sheldon Jasper is considered high risk to sexually reoffend against all children — particularly boys.
Jasper has been in and out of prison over the past 20 years, and even after participating in sexual offender treatment in the past, he is still considered at a high risk to reoffend.
