TAMPA, Fla. – US Marshals from Tampa, Florida Caribbean Fugitive Task Force, Florida Department of Law Enforcement, and the Dixie County Sheriff’s Office coordinated together to apprehend Idaho’s longest absconded sex offender.

Phillip Jenison, 75, was wanted for Failure to Register as a Sex Offender after absconding from Idaho in 1999. Jenison was convicted for Molestation in 1995 and required by law to register as a sex offender upon his release from prison.

US Marshals in Tampa were able to determine that Jenison had been in Pasco County since at least 2000. He had also been living under the alias Philip Kane.
