Child pornography charges follow search of Ontario residence

In Ontario, the courts take any charges involving sexual exploitation seriously. Child pornography charges are quite common, and any person who is facing such charges may have a hard time long before the start of a trial. The most logical step might be to secure the services of an experienced criminal defence lawyer to protect his or her rights and to advocate for him or her.

According to a police report, a 61-year-old man was arrested on several charges related to child pornography on a recent Wednesday. The Child Sexual Exploitation Unit of the Ontario Provincial Police, the Nottawasaga Detachment and the Technological Crime Unit were involved in the investigation that led to the arrest. Reportedly, the Greater Sudbury Police Service initiated the undercover online investigation.

The investigation gave rise to a search warrant that was executed at a residence in Ontario. The search yielded four computers along with external media, purportedly with images showing sexual abuse of children. The man who lived at the home that was searched was arrested. He is now facing multiple charges, including accessing and making available child pornography along with possession of such material.

An Ontario resident who is facing charges of child pornography can utilise the services of a skilled criminal defence lawyer who can focus on protecting his or her interests throughout the legal proceedings. An attorney can examine the procedures used during the execution of the search warrant to identify any unjustified actions. An independent, thorough investigation can be launched to gather information that might help in the defence strategy that will endeavour to achieve the best possible results.
