The search comes more than a decade after he was convicted of raping a child.

He pleaded guilty to abducting a 10-year-old girl sleeping in a home in Paralowie that he had been robbing in 2007.

He took her to a nearby school, where he raped her twice.

Hopkins received the minimum sentence of 8½ years and was eligible for parole in 2017. It is unclear when he was released.

The older brother of the survivor said they were distraught to think Hopkins had allegedly harmed another child.
