KAMLOOPS — Kamloops RCMP are warning people about a 30-year-old convicted sex offender, who will be living in the community.

Police say Taylor Dueck will be released into Kamloops on probation after he completes his Provincial sentence. In a statement Saturday (June 7), they say Dueck “represents a serious and imminent risk” to people under the age of 16.

RCMP say the public interest notification was released under the Privacy Act of Canada. They note Dueck was convicted of offences that include sexual assault, sexual assault with a weapon/threat/bodily harm, and sexual interference of a person under 16.

They note Dueck is bound by a series of conditions which include 24-hour house arrest on his property. He’s also barred from going to public parks, community centres, schools and playgrounds or other places where people under the age of 16 “can reasonably be expected to be present.”

Dueck is also barred from having contact either directly or indirectly, or being in the presence of anyone under the age of 16.

“Taylor Dueck will be subject to monitoring in order to ensure compliance with his conditions,” the Kamloops RCMP said, in its statement.

Dueck is described as having a medium complexion, and police say he stands five-foot-nine and weighs approximately 175 lbs. They also note he has blue eyes and brown hair, though he is balding.

According to reporting by the CBC, Dueck has a history of sexual offences and he has been the subject of public warnings in the past.

Dueck pled guilty to sexually assaulting a person under 16 at an equestrian facility in Kelowna in February last year and was sentenced to two years, less a day, in jail. He spent 240 days behind bars after getting credit for pre-trial detention.

Police say if people see Dueck violating any of his conditions, they should call 9-1-1 immediately.
