 Denis Stephen Bowskill (Troop) Police in Lancashire, England would like the following information circulated across Europe. This information has being sent to Church Child Protection Advisory Service member organisations etc, in case it should be relevant to any work in which the Church or child organisation are currently involved.
Police are anxious to trace the whereabouts of Mr Dennis Stephen Bowskill, also known as Dennis Stephen Troop.
Date of birth: 18th September 1966.
Last known address: 13, Albert Street, Padiham, Lancashire, England.
Description: Bowskill is described as being around 5 feet four inches tall, of medium build with short dark brown but greying hair and a ginger beard. He is softly spoken, with a North West English accent.
Mr Bowskill is currently numbered amongst the most wanted men sought by police in England and was featured on the BBC Crime Watch show last Wednesday, June 9th.
Mr Bowskill is regarded as a dangerous child sex offender, and has already been charged with creating multiple indecent images of young children.
How Mr Bowskill Operates:
His practise to date is to target vulnerable single mothers and then move on to abuse their daughters, including the taking of photographic images. He uses church attendance as a way of introducing himself to his intended victims.
Mr Bowskill (or Mr Troop) failed to appear in Court on March 8th last and the police believe they have traced him to Calais. School teachers and those with responsibility for young children here in Ireland are presently being warned that he could travel in our direction.
Police believe that he will quickly seek to make contact with a church to request support, because he presently has limited financial means.
A European arrest warrant has been issued for his arrest.
Anyone with any information is asked to immediately contact police.
About 100 trainees are to be recruited in the first Garda enrolment since the imposition of the jobs embargo in 2009.
Earlier this year at the Garda Training College here in Templemore Co.Tipperary, Minister for Justice Dermot Ahern indicated that a new recruitment campaign would be implemented in late 2010.
 Templemore Garda Training College We can now confirm that the Minister for Finance Brian Lenihan had given approved funding for new Garda recruitment.
This campaign will establish a further panel of approved candidates who will be available for ongoing recruitment into the Garda College as trainees.
While headline grabbing local politicians are busy claiming personal credits, through use of Mail, Twitter and Facebook, regarding Dermot Ahern’s announcement, we advise you to please beware.
There are already 300 people on a panel waiting to be called and these have already been put through the recruitment process prior to the last embargo being implemented, and these persons are ready to begin training with immediate effect.
It is unlikely therefore that this new recruitment is excluding those already on the panel and if it includes those on the panel, it will only stretch out, over a longer period, the waiting time for those persons already elected to the panel.
In February this year following early retirement and natural wastage, only 170 Gardaí were promoted as follows:- 120 to Sergeant Level, 28 to Inspectors Level, 14 to Superintendent Level and 8 to Chief Superintendent Level.
But do not let us put you off, best advice for those interested in applying for posts within the Gardaí is to create a profile now at http://www.publicjobs.ie/publicjobs/en/campaign/testing.do to receive an e-mail job alert, inviting you to apply for any available posts.

Templemore Garda Training College This piece of news will be of interest and welcome to many of our readers.
A new Garda recruitment drive is to be launched, following the lifting of restrictions on the moratorium on hiring new public servants.
It is expected that new officers will be recruited and begin training before the end of the year. This is to compensate for recent early retirement of senior members of the force, to keep Garda numbers up to approved levels.
The Minister for Justice, Mr Dermot Ahern stated:
“For the people living here in Templemore this college is very important – it’s a fine facility here and its here will be used for the new recruits and indeed for their training. I know there were some suggestions that this place might be mothballed, however there is no question of that”
Dermot Ahern made the comments following a meeting with the Garda Commissioner at a passing out parade for new recruits in Templemore, Co.Tipperary this morning, where 14 Tipperary men and women were among the 267 new Gardai graduating.
Police in Roscrea are busy today investigating machinery stolen from the M7 Motorway works site near Moneygall and an attempted armed raid on Moneygall Post Office.
 Police need your help. Machinery Stolen
In the former case, machinery estimated at around €60 thousand was stolen from a motorway works site near Moneygall, President Barack Obama’s ancestral home, overnight.
The machinery which consisted of two rock breakers, weighing over seven tonne, were stolen sometime between 9 o’clock last night and 6.30 this morning and investigators believe that the removal of this machinery would have required the assistance of at least an 8-wheeler removal vehicle .
Significant damage is also believed to have been caused to another ‘digger’ at this site possibly during the theft.
Armed Raid
In the latter, case a man fled from Moneygall Post Office following an attempted armed raid in the early hours of this morning.
A lone male, described as being around 5ft 11inches in height, wearing a dark tracksuit bottoms with a white stripe, a grey ‘Hoody’ and white standard runners entered the shop just before 7.00 am.
Producing a knife, he ordered the shopkeeper to hand over the contents of the till, however he ran from the shop, empty handed, when the owner began shouting for assistance.
As part of their investigations, Gardai in Roscrea are asking anyone who may have information regarding these events or who may have been in the vicinity, to contact them at Tel No.0505 24230.
New training reforms were outlined at a reservists’ passing-out ceremony in the Garda College on Friday last, at Templemore , Co.Tipperary.
New recruits will be given full policing powers, which will include the power of arrest, after just 34 weeks of training. Presently the current period, before such powers were conferred, was 58 weeks.
New applicants planning to join An Garda Síochána will only be successful if they have a driver’s licence, have first aid training and can swim.
Gardaí will also be offered a range of continuous learning options throughout their careers. Civilians, presently 2,700, working for the Garda force of 14,700 officers, will also be offered enhanced training along side their Gardaí counterparts.
This new training regime has been identified by the Garda Training and Development Review Group established by Garda Commissioner Fachtna Murphy and chaired by former HSE member, Pat McLoughlin.
