One Minute Remaining - Stories from the inmates

Back out again and with new focus - Jason Vukovich


Listen Later

It’s fair to say that with the story of Jason Vukovich — The Alaskan Avenger — we’ve been on quite the rollercoaster ride.


From his origin story to his arrest and incarceration, it’s undoubtedly a story that has sparked division. A story met with disapproval, admiration, and — in some respects — astonishment. However you look at it, there’s no denying that Jason’s story is unlike many, if any.


We followed Jason as he fought for parole from a sentence of over 20 years for his attacks on three registered sex offenders. We were there when his sister received word of his failed attempt at parole, with authorities stating he’d have to wait five more years to go home.


Then, only weeks later, came more news — he had won an appeal. And yet, his release continued to be delayed, pushed back time and time again… until he finally walked free.


When I spoke to Jason upon his release, he told me he was focused on moving forward with his life and had begun building an online presence to connect with those who had followed his story. But it would be that very online presence that saw him put behind bars once again — following claims of a parole violation.


Word quickly spread: some believed it meant he’d have to serve out the remainder of his sentence, while others suggested it was merely a 10-day “cool-down” period.

After more than two weeks, Jason was again released — this time under stricter conditions — as he regained his focus and returned to the free world.


And it’s here that I find him now, as we sit down to discuss exactly what happened… and what’s next for the man they call The Alaskan Avenger.


You can find Jason on all social channels by searching The Alaskan Avenger.
