He has been convicted of a number of sexual offences in the past and poses a high risk for committing violence against women and sexual offences against children.

Smith moved to Vancouver in November 2017 after completing his sentence. At that time,  VPD sent out a warning to the public about his court-imposed conditions.

Investigators believe Smith has violated several of those conditions. Six counts of breaching a recognizance have been approved by Crown counsel and Smith is in custody.

“The VPD’s High-Risk Offender Unit has been monitoring Smith since he was released. They have learned that Smith may also be identifying himself as Trevor Landry, and Trevor Kevin Williams,” said VPD Constable Jason Doucette in a statement.

“Detectives would like to hear from any women who may have had contact with Smith since his release in 2017.”

Smith is bound by several court-ordered conditions, which include:

• Not to be at any place where children and/or youth under the age of 16 years are present or can reasonably be expected,
• No contact, direct or indirect, with children and/or youth 16 years of age or under,
• report relationships and friendships with females,
• Not to consume or possess alcohol or drugs, and
• Not to use or possess a computer system, including handheld device allowing unsupervised internet access.
