    Pennsylvania State Police have issued an arrest warrant for Jonathan Michael Gilland, 39, after absconding police supervision.

    Gilland, of the 100 block of Allen Drive in Exton, Pennsylvania was added to the Megan’s Law Registry on Sept. 28, 2006 and deemed a ‘ten-year’ offender – meaning he has to report to authorities annually.

    The run-away offender was criminally charged on Aug. 25, 2005, with 10 counts of possessing child pornography and three drug related charges. He pleaded guilty to 5 counts of possession of child pornography and one count of possession of a controlled substance.

    Gilland’s last known locations include Edgmont Twp., Delaware County & Uwchilan Twp., Chester County, according to Megan’s Law.

    What’s more, the absconding fugitive has a tattoo of an octopus and a ‘heart jellyfish’ on his arms.
