小蓝视频 child sex offender remains on the loose

Judge confirms two warrants for Randall Hopley's arrest remain outstanding.

A 小蓝视频 man with a history of "offences of a sexual nature against children” remains on the loose after failing to attend court for a second day in a row Nov. 7.

Randall Hopley, 58, didn't return to his halfway house Nov. 4, the Vancouver Police Department (VPD) said.

He was last seen at 3 p.m. that day.

"Hopley has a history of sexual assault, assault, and property crime convictions," the VPD said in a new release. "He has committed three offences of a sexual nature against children in the past."

In 2011, Hopley abducted a three-year-old boy for several days before returning him. He served the full term of his sentence and was released a few years ago, but remained under long-term supervision orders.

Earlier in 2023, he was jailed on charges of breaching those orders.

Hopley was due before Vancouver Provincial Court Judge Ellen Gordon Nov. 6-7 for trial on two counts of breaching a long-term supervision order.

However, he failed to appear Nov. 6 and Gordon issued a warrant.

Crown prosecutor Jacinta Lawton told Gordon that Hopley was also the subject of a Canada-wide warrant.

However, Hopley has yet to be apprehended, resulting in the lawyer and judge striking the appearance from the court list

“Both warrants remain outstanding,” Gordon said Nov. 7.

Lawton said Hopley had cut off his electronic monitoring ankle bracelet.

Police state Hopley was last seen wearing a black coat, black pants, and a black hat. He's described as 5'9" and 176 lbs. He has brown hair and hazel-coloured eyes.

The VPD is asking anyone who sees Hopley to call 911 immediately.
