On February 14, 2025, detectives with the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office Special Victims Unit (SVU) launched an investigation following a report of the sexual assault of a child. The suspect, 42-year-old Jason Allen Johns, was previously a foster parent to the victim.
Johns has been charged with sexual offenses against children and is currently in custody at the El Paso County Jail.
During the course of the investigation, detectives uncovered additional allegations against Johns, some of which span more than a decade.

This remains an active and ongoing investigation. Anyone with information, or who believes they may have been victimized, is urged to contact the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office Tip Line at 719-520-7777.
