The public was warned Thursday about the release of a convicted sex offender who is considered a high risk to reoffend against children.

The Manitoba Integrated High Risk Sex Offender Unit (MIHRSOU) issued the advisory.

Ryan James Gabourie, 32, was released from the Headingley Correctional Centre and is expected to reside in Winnipeg. He has a history of offences in relation to children, including numerous counts of sexual assault, break and enter to commit sexual assault and possession of child pornography.

He is described as 5-8, 198 pounds with brown hair and hazel eyes.

His latest conviction came in November 2012 when he was found using a computer and the Internet, contrary to his recognizance order, one day after his release. Gabourie’s previous convictions stem from the sexual molestation of five young boys ages five to 11 after entering their homes through unlocked windows or doors and assaulting them in their beds while their families were sleeping nearby.

Gabourie participated in sex-offender treatment while in prison, but the MIHRSOU believes he is a high risk to reoffend.

Among the conditions of his probation order, Gabourie cannot attend public parks, swimming pools, school grounds, community centres or daycares where children under the age of 14 can reasonably be expected to be present, nor can he have private, personal contact with persons under 16. Gabourie is also prohibited from owning a computer and having Internet access and is subject to a daily curfew (10 p.m. to 9 a.m.).

If you have information about Gabourie or wish to speak directly to a police officer, please call the MIHRSOU at 204-984-1888.

MIHRSOU is a joint unit of the Winnipeg Police Service and the RCMP.
