An occasional teacher with the Halton District School Board faces a number of child porn charges in connection with an national investigation.
Waterloo Regional Police searched a home in Kitchener on Valentine’s Day, and found numerous electronic devices containing child pornography.
The investigation came after complaints were made to the National Child Exploitation Coordination Centre – alleging a Kitchener man was exploiting children over social media.
Police have arrested 32-year-old Victor Ly – who occasionally taught in Waterloo Region, and internationally at private schools.
The victims range in age from eight to 12-years-old.
Ly faces charges including three counts of child luring three counts of possession of child pornography, and extortion.
WRPS confirm Ly will appear in Kitchener court on March 1st.
570 NEWS has reached out to the Halton District School Board for comment.
