The Montreal Police Department’s sexual exploitation unit is once again asking for the public’s help in locating potential victims of a convicted sex offender who has allegedly relapsed.

Jonathan Inglis, 36, appeared in court on July 29 to face charges of child solicitation, sexual contact and solicitation of sexual contact in relation to two complainants who were 13 years old.

According to police, Inglis contacted a number of youths between the ages of 11 and 17 in previous months using social media apps such as Snapchat and TikTok under various identities, including Darby, Connor and Colton.

Police say he would offer them “e-cigarettes, drugs, money or clothing to get them to meet him” and referred to “sexual elements” in his conversations.

Court records show that the alleged offenses occurred between March 1 and June 17 of this year.

Investigators are asking anyone who may have been a victim to contact police by visiting their local police station or share information anonymously by calling Info-Crime Montreal at 514-393-1133.

Inglis is described as a white man who speaks English and French. He is five feet eight inches tall, weighs about 145 pounds, has brown hair, blue eyes and a brown beard.

The accused is no stranger to the Montreal police.

According to court documents, he pleaded guilty in January 2020 to one count of child enticement and solicitation of sexual contact. He was sentenced to three years, but was credited with time already served, so the sentence was reduced to nine months. He was placed on the sex offenders’ register for life and placed on a long-term supervision order for five years as part of a suspended sentence.

Prior to the arrest in that case, police issued a call to the public for potential victims to come forward after investigators at the time identified two victims aged 12 and 15.

In the new 2024 case, prosecutors also accused him of violating his probation by communicating with someone under the age of 16 and using the Internet outside of court-ordered conditions.

Inglis remains in custody and is due back in court on Friday.
