Police say that in 2017 he was charged with committing the same offences.

Given the nature of the offences, Barrie police say they will not be releasing the suspect’s name.

Officers say the accused used Google to upload images of child pornography, and as a result, several computer devices were seized for forensic analysis.

He was subsequently held for a bail hearing and later released to a surety with several conditions, along with a future court date.
