High-risk offender who abducted, sexually assaulted 11-year-old now living in Vancouver, police warn
Brian Abrosimo is white, 5 feet 10 inches and 240 pounds with a shaved head and grey facial hair
The Vancouver Police Department is warning the public that a high-risk sexual offender who abducted and sexually assault an 11-year-old girl serving a sentence for sexual assault and kidnapping is currently living in Vancouver.
Brian Abrosimo, 57, is a safety risk to adolescent and adult women, including strangers and acquaintances, says the VPD in a statement Thursday.
He began serving a 14-year, four-month sentence in 2006 for sexual assault, kidnapping, unlawful confinement, assault with a weapon, sexual assault with a weapon, and forcible confinement.
His sentence ends in October 2020, at which point he will be under a 10-year supervision order.
Abrosimo is white, five feet 10 inches tall, and weighs 240 pounds. He has grey shaved hair, hazel eyes and a grey moustache and goatee.
Abrosimo has a long and violent criminal history, but his most recent sentence began after attacks on a sex trade worker and two girls in the summer of 2004.
An August parole board decision said he drove the sex trade worker to a secluded area, handcuffed her, gagged her, pointed a handgun at her, threatened to kill her and then sexually assaulted her.
A month later, Abrosimo hit two girls, aged 15 and 11, with his van while they were riding bikes in Aldergrove. The older girl's wrist was broken in the collision. Abrosimo grabbed the younger girl, drove away with her in his van, and then sexually assaulted her.
According to the terms of his statutory release, Abrosimo must immediately report all sexual and non-sexual relationships with females to a parole supervisor.
He is also not permitted to be in the presence of any girls under the age of 18 unless accompanied by another supervisor-approved adult.
The other terms of his release state that he is not permitted to consume alcohol or drugs, associate with criminals, or have any contact with victims, and he is not permitted to go to Abbotsford, Langley, or Vancouver Island.
Anyone with knowledge of Abrosimo violating any of these conditions is asked to call 911 immediately.
