Police say Semple has a lengthy history of violent and sexual offences. Although he has participated in some treatment programming in the past, he is still considered at high risk to re-offend in a sexual and/or violent manner. Females are at particular risk.

Anyone with information on Semple’s whereabouts is asked to contact the Manitoba Integrated High-Risk Sex Offender Unit at (204) 984-1888. After hours, contact either the appropriate RCMP detachment or Winnipeg police at (204) 986-6222 or Crime Stoppers at (204) 786-8477.
