Pedophile Arrested by Canadina Police After Child Molested and Shown via the Internet
A man who had sexually molested a preschool girl and broadcast the images live over the internet has been arrested. The depravity of some people defies words. Luckily for this young girl, this pedophile sent the images to and undercover detective. The young girl was rescued 2 hours after Toronto police’s Sex Crimes child exploitation unit witnessed the live assault.
He alerted police in St. Thomas, a city in southwestern Ontario where police believed the man lived, and they were able to track him down in two hours.
“To see this child and look that child in the eyes and realize that the child was live somewhere, being abused, we had to save the child right then,” Krawczyk said at a news conference. “The minute we realized what was happening, we went as fast as we could.”
Krawczyk belongs to Toronto’s Child Exploitation Section, acclaimed for its work tracking down child pornographers on the Internet. Microsoft Corp. teamed with the detectives last year to launch a software program designed to help police forces around the world hunt down child porn Internet traffickers.
Tool Thwarts Online Child Predators
Using CETS, police agencies can manage and analyze huge volumes of information in powerful new ways, such as cross-referencing obscure data relationships and using social-network analysis to identify communities of offenders.
“CETS has helped police catch up with cyber-criminals on the Internet,” Gillespie says. “The product has exceeded my wildest dreams. I have also been impressed by Microsoft Canada and their passion to do the right thing. I am overwhelmed with their sense of responsibility”. (Microsoft.com)
The man’s name has not yet been released to protect the identity of the preschool girl. It has not been reported what the relationship is between the arrested pedophile and the girl.
He said the identity of the 34-year-old man was not being released to protect the girl. He declined to say whether the suspect was related to her.
Krawczyk said the girl was safe with family members and getting medical care.
The man’s bail hearing was set for Tuesday and he faces 10 charges of sexual assault and the production, possession and distribution of child pornography. (WNBC)
The unidentified man will be charged with an array of sex charges that will hopefully put this dirt bag away for quite a while.
Ontario law enforcement agencies yesterday revealed how they tracked down and arrested the 34-year-old man, who faces a litany of charges including making child pornography, sexual assault and sexual interference. (Canada.com)
The Toronto Child Exploitation unit has done some amazing work including helping Florida police locate a young girl who had appeared in a series of sexually explicit photographs taken at a Walt Disney World hotel. There message is very clear and very much appreciated.
“The message to all pedophiles, and people who want to sexually exploit children on the Internet is that we are on the Internet 24/7, we know where you are and we will find you,” Krawczyk said.
[...] In an even more disturbing story, the much acclaimed Toronto Sex Crimes Child Exploitation Unit nabbed an on-line pedophile predator who actually broadcast his assault of a preschooler live over the internet. Read more about the apprehension and the software that helped aid the police in arresting this predator. [...]

As if it could become any worse… I found out on the
internet that the man who did this was the FATHER of the
little girl. Gee… I wonder how much money he would
have made hittin’ two audiences at the same time like
that:
1) the terribly nasty ones that think that fondling
a child is somehow sexy
2) the victims and perpetrators of incest
I especially enjoyed the way they ended the article with:
“We know who you are;”
“We know what you’ve done;”
“and, We ARE going to catch you.”
I certainly hope so. This is SICK!!!
Gee….. I wonder if he also has a torture chamber???!?!?
