YERINGTON, Nev. – It was a bad day to be Jason Klipple. The 44-year-old, already branded with the ugly distinction of a Tier 3 sex offender, found himself in the crosshairs of the Lyon County Sheriff’s Office last Friday. Deputies sniffing around a suspicious car like bloodhounds on a hot trail stumbled upon Klipple and discovered he was knee-deep in legal quicksand—failing to register in the county like the law demands.
That wasn’t all.
Further digging revealed that Klipple, a man already on active parole, had been treating his conditions like mere suggestions, racking up violations with reckless abandon. The hammer came down swiftly. He got cuffed, hauled off, and booked into the Lyon County Jail on a cocktail of felony charges: failure to register as a sex offender and violating parole conditions—each one a nail in the coffin of his so-called freedom.
For those keeping an eye on the darker corners of Lyon County, where shadows crawl with the worst of them, the Sheriff’s Office wants your intel. If you have a lead on non-compliant sex offenders lurking in the region, drop a line to the Sex Offender Task Force at SOTF@lyon-county.org.
Keep it sharp, keep it clean, and maybe—just maybe—you’ll help bag the next one.
