Background information:
Brett Russell Jeffrey PILCH is a 45 year-old male with a criminal record for indecent phone calls, harassing phone calls and sexual assault.
Over the last 17 years, PILCH has repeatedly been involved in incidents where he has sexually harassed women with whom he has had no prior relationship. This harassing sexual conduct usually takes place over the telephone, but has, on occasion, taken the form of direct physical contact. On May 26, 2009, following his release from penitentiary for numerous offences of a sexually harassing nature, PILCH was placed on a Probation Order which, among other things, contained a condition not to be in the presence of any female actually or apparently under the age of 18 years except for unavoidable encounters in a public place. A few months later, PILCH was identified by video surveillance speaking to an underage female. Further investigation revealed that he made sexually inappropriate comments to the female. He was charged with Breach of Recognizance and sentenced to five months in jail to be followed by two years probation. The five month sentence will expire on May 13, 2010. Upon release, PILCH is expected to take up residence in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
During his previous prison sentences, PILCH has participated in sex offender treatment programs. However, he is still considered a high risk to re-offend. Females, particularly young adult women, are at risk of sexual harassment as well as possible physical sexual violence.
