CAUTION

Andrew J. Brantz, a convicted sex offender, is wanted for child molestation in Arizona. In January of 1986, Brantz was convicted of molesting a family member, who was under the age of 15. Brantz was charged with one count of attempted sexual molestation, and one count of dangerous crimes against children. The incidents, which took place over a period of 5 years, occurred when the female victim was alone with Brantz. The molestation involved Brantz fondling the victim inside her clothing.

After serving 6 months of his 5-year prison term in jail, Brantz subsequently received life-time probation for the above-mentioned crime. After his release from prison in 1986, Brantz allegedly molested another family member under the age of 15. He allegedly fondled the female victim underneath her clothing, and the incidents were reported to authorities in 1991.

A state warrant was issued on May 26, 1992, by the Superior Court of the state of Arizona, County of Maricopa, after Brantz violated his probation. On February 3, 1999, Brantz was charged federally with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution by the United States District Court, District of Arizona, and a federal warrant was issued for his arrest. Additionally, on October 6, 2006, an absconder warrant was issued for Brantz by the Superior Court of Arizona, County of Maricopa. Brantz was last seen in 1992 when he left his Arizona residence without notifying his probation officer.
