State police are again asking for the public's help in finding Delbert W. Sampson, a 65-year-old former Felton resident and high-risk sex offender who has been missing since January 2006.

The most recent unconfirmed tip came in July and placed Sampson near Spence's Bazaar in Dover, police said. He was convicted in 2002 of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl.

The Delaware State Police Sex Offender Apprehension and Registration Unit considers Sampson its most wanted offender.

In April, Sampson was profiled on the television program "America's Most Wanted" and will appear again in an upcoming episode, police said.

The show's Web site said he also has been reported in the area of Pagosa, Colo., and Cortez, Colo.

He is described as 5 feet 10 inches to 6 feet tall, with black and gray hair and brown eyes.

Anyone with information on Sampson's whereabouts may call state police at 672-5306 or Delaware Crime Stoppers at (800) TIP-3333 or http://www.tipsubmit.com/.
