News 5 viewers helped track down a wanted sex offenders earlier this week, and police asked for your help again.

John Cannada Sr. was convicted of inappropriately touching an 8-year-old child, but authorities said he has failed to keep up with his court-mandated registration and has eluded capture.

“He actually did not give us a next of kin, so we have nothing on him,” said Adam Breeze of the Hamilton County Sheriff’s department.

Authorities said they hope to capture Cannada before he strikes again.

Children who are victimized by sex offenders are exposed to physical harm, sexually transmitted disease and pregnancy, authorities said.

“But then we've also got the ones that are less obvious: mental health problems, lack of trust and anger issues,” said Warren County Prosecutor Rachel Hutzel.

“Depression, depression can set in, suicide, drug abuse,” Breeze said.

He added that, unless they’re treated, some young victims can repeat the pattern by becoming sex offenders themselves.

That’s why he’s so anxious to take Cannada back into police custody.

“If you see him, contact us and we'll go out and pick him up,” Breeze said.

If you see Cannada, call Crimestoppers at 513-352-3040.
