Moberly man deemed sexually violent predator

A Randolph County jury decided a Moberly man will remain in custody for sexually violent crimes he was previously convicted of.

Daniel J. Jensen, 41, of Moberly, Missouri, was convicted in the state of California for molesting two boys, ages 9 and 10. Then, once moving back to Missouri, he was caught and convicted for abusing a physically handicapped boy from ages 2 to 4.

“Jensen also admitted to years of downloading pornography featuring children as young as 2 years old and stated he would have had abused another 4-year-old if given the chance,” the Attorney General’s Office said in a press release.

Jensen was treated in California for sex offending issues and was terminated from treatment in Missouri’s Department of Corrections for lying and an unwillingness to change behaviors.

Jensen will remain in the care of the Missouri Department of Mental Health until he’s “deemed to be safe to be at large,” the release said.
