A 34-year-old man from Grande Prairie is facing 10 charges, including one count of making, printing or publishing child porn, after a year-long investigation.
RCMP and ALERT’s Internet Child Exploitation (ICE) unit received information from the National Child Exploitation Coordination Centre last year.
They began to investigate and ended up conducting a search warrant at a home in Grande Prairie.
On Nov. 24, Ryan Lillie was arrested and charged with five counts of possession of child porn; four counts of transmitting, making available or distributing child porn; and one count of making, printing or publishing child porn.
The accused was released on bail under several conditions that include:
· No contact with anyone under the age of 16 years unless supervised by an appropriate adult
· Not permitted to access the internet under any circumstance
· Not possess any electronic device capable of accessing the internet
· Not be found in any public location that has public access to computers and devices capable of accessing the internet
· Not to obtain or hold employment or volunteer at a location where it is reasonable to believe children under age 16 may be present
· Not be found within 75 metres of a public park, recreation facility, day care or other location where it is reasonable that children under age 16 and younger will be located
· Not reside in a home that has internet service
Lillie is set to appear in Grande Prairie Provincial Court on Jan. 3.
