According to the Nova Scotia RCMP, the child from the West Hants area called officers in May 2023. The responding officer went to the child’s home to start an investigation. The evidence showed someone was attempting to exploit and extort the child and had sent the victim intimate images, a press release from RCMP reads. Over the investigation, officials confirmed the suspect’s IP address was in California. Officers with the Internet Child Exploitation Unit then connected with the United States Homeland Security Investigations based out of the U.S. Embassy in Ottawa. From there, in May 2024, police were able to arrest a 38-year-old man in California who admitted to victimizing more than 20 children, including the one in West Hants. Due to the efforts started by the 8-year-old and their parent, police said they were able to track down the person. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail admin previous post Canadians scaling back summer travel plans due to cost of living: CIBC next post الديمقراطي الجديد ينتقل إلى الهجوم دون تمزيق الاتفاق مع الليبراليين You may also like تبادل اتهامات بين حكومة كيبيك وبلدية مونتريال حول... 4 يوليو، 2024 [تقرير] إسدال الستار على المخيّم الداعم للفلسطينيين في... 4 يوليو، 2024 ترودو يؤكد أنه يصغي إلى نوابه لكنه يتحاشى... 4 يوليو، 2024 عمدة ميسيسوغا الجديدة تستخدم صلاحيات فائقة عدة مرات... 4 يوليو، 2024 Andy Fillmore to run for Halifax Regional Municipality... 4 يوليو، 2024 Cape Breton police investigating gold-for-gas scam that targets... 4 يوليو، 2024 Lower Sackville man faces multiple drug charges after... 4 يوليو، 2024 Health care workers in Nova Scotia move closer... 4 يوليو، 2024 With expansion of phone app, Nova Scotia patients... 4 يوليو، 2024 Boil water advisory lifted effective immediately, following power... 4 يوليو، 2024
