Reward Increased To $8,000 For Most Wanted Sex Offender

The Department of Public Safety has increased the reward for information leading to the arrest of one of Texas' most wanted sex offenders to $8,000. Pete Jerry Luna, 52, is wanted for sexual abuse of a child and failure to comply with sex offender registration requirements, DPS said in a news release.

"Luna has been wanted since March 2018 when he absconded from his last known address in Corsicana, Texas, located in Navarro County; he also has ties to the Houston area," DPS said. "In 1992, Luna was convicted of aggravated sexual assault of a child after an incident in Navarro County involving an eight-year-old girl."

Luna is 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighs about 180 pounds. For more information and updates in the event of his arrest, see his wanted bulletin.

To be eligible for the cash rewards, tipsters must provide information to authorities using one of the three following methods:

• Call the Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-252-TIPS (8477).
• Submit a web tip through the DPS website by selecting the fugitive you have information about, and then clicking on the link under their picture.
• Submit a Facebook tip by clicking the “SUBMIT A TIP” link (under the “About” section).

All tips are anonymous — regardless of how they are submitted — and tipsters will be provided a tip number instead of using a name.
