Man sentenced to decade in prison for child exploitation
A man arrested in Red Deer earlier this year following a joint investigation involving the Saskatchewan Internet Child Exploitation Unit (Sask ICE) and the Alberta Law Enforcement Response Teams Internet Child Exploitation Unit (ALERT ICE) has been ordered to spend the next decade behind bars.
On June 24 of this year, Sask ICE received information regarding two men accessing cloud-based child pornography, sharing child pornography and discussing, through a popular social media application, sexually assaulting children. Sask ICE started an investigation and shared its findings with their Alberta counterparts.
Two days later, search warrants were executed in Rocanville, Saskatchewan and Red Deer. Numerous electronic devices were seized at several locations and two men were arrested.
Two children were rescued safely, police said at the time, and each province’s children’s services departments became involved in their care.
