Sex offender expected to live in Winnipeg

Police are alerting the public about a sex offender released from custody Wednesday who is considered a high risk to reoffend.

Glen Gregory Tyler Pozniak, 44, is expected to live in Winnipeg.

He is considered a high risk to sexually reoffend against both pre-pubescent and adolescent boys, the Manitoba Integrated High Risk Sex Offender Unit — a joint unit composed of Winnipeg Police Service and RCMP members — said in a news release.

Pozniak was released from the Bowden Institution on statutory release after serving a portion of his sentence for convictions of sexual exploitation, sexual interference and child-sexual abuse imagery crimes.

He was sentenced in 2015 to 13 years and spent more than 11 years behind bars.

Two previous statutory releases were revoked after he tested positive for drugs.

Pozniak completed some sex-offender programming while in custody, but did not finish.

Anyone with information on Pozniak is asked to contact the Manitoba Integrated High Risk Sex Offender Unit at 431-489-8056, Winnipeg police at 204-986-6222, local RCMP or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-8477.
