Thoughts? Before anything else, I need to go into additional details on this case to stress how important it is that Jensen be caught.
-Both Jensen and his wife, Diane Jensen, were indicted on sex abuse charges in October 2013. Charges against them allege that in 2002, while visiting relatives in the town of Toomah in Wisconsin, they allegedly lured a 12-year-old girl with an invitation to try on a prom dress. Daniel Jensen allegedly also sexually abused the girl at his and Diane's home outside Delta Junction in Alaska and on trips to Delta Junction and Anchorage. Diane Jensen also is said to have inappropriately touched the girl and in January of 2015 she pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit sexual abuse of a minor. (I do not know what her sentence was).
-Jensen was scheduled to go to trial in May of 2015 and was under a court order to remain with a third-party custodian. However, in April of 2015, Alaska state troopers would receive reports that he had run away from that custodian. He hasn't been seen since.
-As of this posting date (9/23/2018), Jensen is seemingly still at large in both states. A search of Wisconsin's online criminal court records still shows the Monroe County charges against him as "Filed only- warrant issued". Also his date of birth is said to be 8/12/1960 which would make him 58 years old as of the aforementioned posting date and his full name is Daniel Duane Jensen Jr.: wcca.wicourts.gov/caseDetail.html?caseNo=2015CF000154&countyNo=41&index=0&mode=details
-The number in the article is for Wisconsin, but if he's spotted in Alaska the number listed in articles is the Alaska State Troopers Delta Junction post at (907) 895-4800. In any other state or locale if you think you spot him, my advice would be to contact your local police or crime stoppers in your area.
In any case, this is one very sick alleged bastard, and we need to have him caught before he allegedly harms any more young children. (If he hasn't done so already).
UPDATE: On February 27th, 2019, Jensen was aired as a still-at-large fugitive on Investigation Discovery's "In Pursuit". Based on that/as of that date, anyone with information on his whereabouts can also call the show's tip line 1-833-3-PURSUE and/or submit a tip at the show's website: www.InPursuitTips.com
